Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-benzyl-5-hydroxy-2-oxo-3-phenyl-8-pyridin-3-yl-1,2-dihydro-[1,7]naphthyridine-6-carboxylic acid methyl ester (105 mg, 0.23 mmol), 2 M NaOH (3 mL), MeOH (3 mL) and THF (3 mL) was stirred at r.t. overnight, then concentrated to approximately one-third of its original volume. 1 M HCl was added to acidify the mixture, and the resulting suspension was extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to give 105 mg of 1-benzyl-5-hydroxy-2-oxo-3-phenyl-8-pyridin-3-yl-1,2-dihydro-[1,7]naphthyridine-6-carboxylic acid as a light orange solid, which was immediately used in the next step without purification.
