Lithium Hydroxide → (4-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-phenyl)-acetic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (4-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-phenyl)-acetic acid methyl ester (72 mg, 0.117 mmol) was dissolved in THF (3 mL) and methanol (1 mL), then 2N LiOH (1 mL) was added and stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The mixture was concentrated and diluted with water and ethyl acetate. The organic phase was separated then concentrated to yield chiral (4-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-phenyl)-acetic acid (37 mg, 52.6%) as an white powder. HRMS (ES+) m/z Calcd for C31H29Cl2F2N3O3+H [(M+H)+]: 600.1627. found: 600.1626.
