Participants

Reaction Steps

1.6 g of 4′-(2-methoxyethoxymethoxy)-N-[4′-(2,4-dioxothiazolidin-5-ylmethyl)biphenyl-3-ylmethyl]-N-methylbiphenyl-4-carboxamide, 100 ml of methanol and 1 ml of 98% sulphuric acid are introduced, in order, into a 250 ml three-necked flask. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The reaction medium is concentrated. It is taken up in ethyl acetate and it is washed twice with water. The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate. After filtration and evaporation, the product obtained is recrystallized from an acetone/dichloromethane mixture. After filtration and drying, 1.34 g (99%) of 4′-hydroxy-N-[4′-(2,4-dioxothiazolidin-5-ylmethyl)biphenyl-3-ylmethyl]-N-methylbiphenyl-4-carboxamide are obtained in the form of a white powder having a melting point of 211–213° C.
