5-(3,3-Dimethyl-but-1-ynyl)-3-[(cis-3-hydroxy-cyclobutyl)-(trans-4-methyl-cyclohexanecarbonyl)-amino]-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (400 mg, 0.93 mmol) in a 3:2:1 mixture of THF:MeOH:water (20 mL) was treated with lithium hydroxide (4.5 mL, 1.0 M aqueous solution) and heated to 60° C. for 2 hours. The organic volatiles were evaporated under reduced pressure and remaining solution was acidified with 10% HCl(ac). A white precipitate was collected by vacuum filtration, washed with water, and dried to afford 290 mg (74% yield) of 5-(3,3-Dimethyl-but-1-ynyl)-3-[(cis-3-hydroxy-cyclobutyl)-(4-methyl-cyclohexanecarbonyl)-amino]-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid as a white powder. MS (m/z): 415.8 [M−H]−; HPLC retention time: 4.10 min (2-98% acetonitrile:water with 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid).
