Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A solution of compound 5 (0.85 g) and NaOH (0.304 g) in a mixture of water (9 mL), methanol (5 mL), and THF (45 mL) was stirred at reflux for 24 h and concentrated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in water, and the solution was cooled to 0° C. and adjusted to pH 7 with 10% potassium hydrogen sulfate. The mixture was concentrated to dryness, the residue was treated with methanol, and filtered to remove solids. The filtrate was concentrated to yield compound 6 as a yellow solid.
