Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of methyl 3-(aminocarbonyl)-5-[(dipropylamino)carbonyl]benzoate (XXII, PREPARATION 5, 0.197 g, 0.64 mmol) in methanol (5.0 mL) is added sodium hydroxide (1N, 3.0 mL). The mixture is stirred at 20-25 degrees C. for 24 hours. The mixture is acidified to about pH 5 with hydrochloric acid (10%). Water (50 mL) is added and the mixture is washed twice with ethyl acetate (2×50 mL). The organic extracts are combined and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated to give the title compound, NMR (DMSO-d6) delta 0.66, 0.930, 1.48, 1.62, 3.12, 3.35, 7.54, 7.98, 8.22 and 8.51.
