Water → 3-(isopropyl(methyl)amino)-2-(3-methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)quinoxaline-6-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 3-(isopropyl(methyl)amino)-2-(3-methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)quinoxaline-6-carboxylate (80 mg, 0.21 mmol) in MeOH (10 mL) was added sodium hydroxide (52 mg, 0.29 mmol) and water (1 mL). The resulting solution was stirred for 2 h at room temperature and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was dissolved in water (3 mL) and adjusted to pH 6 with hydrochloric acid (1N). The solids were collected by filtration to afford 3-(isopropyl(methyl)amino)-2-(3-methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)quinoxaline-6-carboxylic acid as a yellow solid (45.8 mg, 59%).
