Reaction Steps

The nitrile 37 (95.8 mg, 237 μmol) was dissolved in dioxane (5 ml) and treated with 2N sodium hydroxide in water (250 μl, 500 μmol). The reaction was sealed and heated to reflux for 2 hours. The reaction was concentrated to dryness and extracted with ethyl acetate and water. The organics were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give crude product (72.3 mg). The crude was purified via flash chromatography and eluted with a gradient from 1:1 ethyl acetate/hexane to 100% ethyl acetate to 4/4/1 ethyl acetate/hexane/7N ammonia in methanol to give 38 (26.7 mg, 45%).
