Participants

Reaction Steps

85% phosphoric acid (0.14 mL, 1.18 mmol) was added to a solution of ethyl 2-{3-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]azetidin-1-yl}-4-isopropyl-1,3-thiazole-5-carboxylate obtained in Example (221a) (175 mg, 0.47 mmol) in dichloromethane (1 mL) at room temperature, followed by stirring for 15.5 hours. Water and a 50% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution were added to the reaction solution, and then the mixture was extracted with a chloroform/methanol mixed solvent. The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and filtered. Thereafter, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain 95 mg of the title compound as a colorless oily substance (74%).
