Trifluoroacetic acid → (3-{[Methanesulfonyl-(4-thiazol-2-yl-benzyl)-amino]-methyl}-phenoxy)-acetic Acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (3-{[methanesulfonyl-(4-thiazol-2-yl-benzyl)-amino]-methyl}-phenoxy)-acetic acid tert-butyl ester (0.074 g) in 2 mL CH2Cl2 was cooled to 0° C. and 2 mL trifluoroacetic acid was added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The solvent was removed by evaporation azeotroping with CH2Cl2 to afford the title compound (40 mg). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ9.94 (bs, 1H), 8.14 (s, 1H), 7.81 (d, 2H), 7.55 (s, 1H), 7.37 (d, 2H), 7.18 (m, 1H), 6.90 (d, 1H), 6.80 (d, 1H), 6.63 (s, 1H), 4.58 (s, 2H), 4.35 (s, 2H), 4.29 (s, 2H), 2.93 (s, 3H); MS 431 (M−1).
