Participants

Reaction Steps

(R)-1-carbomethoxymethyl-3-(5-chloroindole-2-carbonylamino)-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril (Example 7) (13 mg) was dissolved in a 2:2:1 mixture of tetrahydrofuran, methanol, and water (5 mL). Lithium hydroxide monohydrate (3 mg) was added, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. Addition of 1.0 M aqueous hydrochloric acid (10 mL) was followed by extraction with ethyl acetate (20 mL twice). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (10 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and evaporated under vacuum to provide the title compound (12 mg). HPLC/MS [M+H]+, 398.
