Procedure

A solution of methyl 2-(tert-butoxy)-2-(9-(4-fluorobenzyl)-2-methyl-1-oxo-4-(p-tolyl)-2,9-dihydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indol-3-yl)acetate (30 mg, 0.055 mmol) in Tetrahydrofuran (THF) (1 mL) and Methanol (1 mL) was treated with 2M LiOH (1 mL, 2.000 mmol) and then heated at 70° C. for 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to 0° C., treated with HCl (1M) until pH <2 and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by reverse phase chromatography (10-90% MeCN/H2O-0.1% TFA, 12 min) to afford 2-(tert-butoxy)-2-(9-(4-fluorobenzyl)-2-methyl-1-oxo-4-(p-tolyl)-2,9-dihydro-1H-pyrido[3,4-b]indol-3-yl)acetic acid (9.2 mg, 0.017 mmol, 32% yield) as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) ppm 13.35 (s, 1H), 7.73-7.66 (m, 1H), 7.50-7.32 (m, 7H), 7.19-7.09 (m, 2H), 6.98-6.89 (m, 1H), 6.49-6.51 (m, 1H), 6.14 (s, 2H), 5.17 (s, 1H), 3.66 (m, 3H), 2.49 (s, 3H), 0.97 (s, 9H); LCMS (m/z) ES+=527 (M+1).
