Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 2-(3,4-dihydro-2H-benzo[1,4]oxazin-7-yl)-propionic acid ethyl ester (258 mg) in THF (3 mL) and H2O (3 mL) was added NaOH (134 mg) at room temperature. After being stirred for 20 h at room temperature, the reaction mixture was acidified with AcOH (pH=4) and diluted with water. The resulting mixture extracted with dichloromethane and the combined organic layer was dried magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was chromatographed on silica gel (CH2Cl2:MeOH=15:1) to afford the product as a brown oil. (150 mg, 65.8%)
