Ammonia → 4-(2-(12-(Isopropylthio)dodecanoylamino)phenoxy)-butyramide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (7) (20 mg, 0.041 mM) in methanol (10 mL) is added methanol saturated with ammonia (5 mL) and the stoppered mixture allowed to stir at ambient temperatures until TLC analysis shows little or no (D) remains. Concentration of the reaction mixture followed by preparative thin layer chromatography (silica gel; 3% methanol/methylene chloride as eluant) yields product 9 (11 mg) as a waxy solid.
