Methanol → HCID 91349945, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution was made containing the side-chain protected compound from the previous step, e.g. 2-({[(2S,4EZ)-1-([1,1′-biphenyl]-4-ylcarbonyl)-4-(methoxyimino)pyrrolidinyl]carbonyl}amino)ethyl acetate (450 mg, 10.6 mmol) in THF (10 ml). An aqueous solution (10 ml) of sodium hydroxide (75 mg, 19 mmol) with methanol (5 ml) was added and the reaction stirred at room temperature for three hours. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the crude purified by column chromatography using THF (100%) to give the expected final product, e.g. (2S,4EZ)-1-([1,1′-biphenyl]-4-ylcarbonyl)-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4-(methoxyimino)-2-pyrrolidinecarboxamide (300 mg, 75%) as a white solid.
