Lithium hydroxide, monohydrate → 3-[2-{2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]phenyl}-3-cyclohexyl-6-(methoxycarbonyl)-1H-indol-1-yl]propanoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.1 eq of lithium hydroxide monohydrate was added to a solution of methyl 2-{2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl) amino]phenyl}-3-cyclohexyl-1-(3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl)-1H-indole-6-carboxylate in a mixture THF:H2O (4:1; 0.1 M). The mixture was stirred at RT for 1.5 h. The reaction was quenched with 1 N HCl and the solvent evaporated in vacuo. The residue was washed with the minimum amount of Et2O and the resultant precipitate filtered to obtain the title compound as a white solid (81%); MS (ES+) m/z 521 (M+H)+.
