Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 2-(7-chlorothieno[3,2-b]pyridin-2-yl)-1,3-thiazole-4-carboxylate (0.200 g, 0.62 mmole), prepared by the method described in PC10795A, section A, example 26, in EtOAc (5 ml) was added 1N aqueous NaOH solution (1.85 ml, 1.85 mmole). The reaction mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 1 h, cooled to room temperature, diluted with H2O (10 ml) and acidified with 1N HCl to pH˜2. The resulting solution was extracted with 10% MeOH in CH2Cl2 (5×10 ml), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated and dried under vacuum to give yellow solid (0.181 g, 98%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) □ 7.67 (1H, d, J=5.09 Hz) 8.41 (1H, s) 8.65 (1H, s) 8.71 (1H, bs); ESIMS (MH+): 309.95.
