Reaction Steps

To 122 mg of methyl 4-[3-({(tert-butoxycarbonyl)[(1R)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-4-phenylpiperidin-1-yl]-3,5-difluorobenzoate were added 2.0 mL of THF, 2.0 mL of methanol, and 1.0 mL of a 1 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, followed by stirring at room temperature overnight. It was neutralized by addition of 1.1 mL of 1 M hydrochloric acid, and then extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. After filtration, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform-methanol) to obtain 115 mg of 4-[3-({(tert-butoxycarbonyl)[(1R)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl]amino}methyl)-4-phenylpiperidin-1-yl]-3,5-difluorobenzoic acid as a pale yellow oily substance.
