Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl trans-2-pyridin-4-ylcyclopropanecarboxylate (0.918 g, 4.80 mmol) in THF (10 mL) and water (10 mL) was added lithium hydroxide (0.345 g, 14.4 mmol). The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at rt for 24 h and then diluted with 2N HCl (10 mL). The mixture was concentrated to give trans-2-pyridin-4-ylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid which was used without purification in the next step. LCMS: (FA) ES+ 164.0, ES-162.1.
