Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Excess NaOH (10 mL, 1N aq) was added to a stirring solution of methyl 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-isopropoxy-6-(methylsulfonamido)benzofuran-3-carboxylate (3.0 g, 6.89 mmol) in EtOH (34 mL) and THF (34 mL). It was allowed to stir at 60° C. overnight. The mixture was then heated to 67° C. and allowed to stir for 4 more hours. The mixture was concentrated then diluted with EtOAc and washed with 1M HCl, and sat NaCl. The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give the titled compound (2.7 g, 96%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-D6) δ ppm 1.31-1.38 (m, 6H) 2.99 (s, 3H) 4.63-4.73 (m, 1H) 7.32-7.41 (m, 2H) 8.00-8.08 (m, 2H) 8.88 (s, 2H) 13.05 (s, 1H). LC-MS retention time: 1.03 min; m/z (MH−): 406. LC data was recorded on a Shimadzu LC-10AS liquid chromatograph equipped with a Waters XBridge 5u C18 4.6×50 mm column using a SPD-10AV UV-Vis detector at a detector wave length of 220 nM. The elution conditions employed a flow rate of 5 ml/min, a gradient of 100% solvent A/0% solvent B to 0% solvent A/100% solvent B, a gradient time of 2 min, a hold time of 1 min, and an analysis time of 3 min where solvent A was 5% acetonitrile/95% H2O/10 mM ammonium acetate and solvent B was 5% H2O/95% acetonitrile/10 mM ammonium acetate. MS data was determined using a Micromass Platform for LC in electrospray mode.
