Reaction Steps

To a room temperature solution of methyl 5-{[3-bromo-4-[(2,4-difluorobenzyl)oxy]-6-methyl-2-oxopyridin-1(2H)-yl]methyl}-2-furoate (Example 660) (608 g, 1.30 mmol) in THF (8.0 mL) was added dropwise an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (3.0 M, 0.50 mL, 1.50 mmol). The reaction was then heated to 60° C. for 12.0 hours. The resulting suspension was then diluted with 500 mL of ethyl acetate and neutralized with an aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid (1.0 N, 1.5 mL, 10 mmol). The resulting biphasic solution was then concentrated in vacuo to a volume of 50 mL. At this time a white solid began to form and the resulting solid suspension was allowed to sit until precipitation appeared to stop (approximately 1.0 hour). The precipitate was collected and dried in vacuo (1.0 mm Hg) to furnish the solid acid as an intermediate (500 mg, 85%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, d4-MeOH) δ 7.64 (app q, J=8.3 Hz, 1H), 7.18 (d, J=3.4 Hz, 1H), 7.10-7.02 (m, 2H), 6.54 (s, 1H), 6.50 (d, J=3.5 Hz, 1H), 5.42 (s, 2H), 5.37 (s, 2H), 2.64 (s, 3H); LC/MS C-18 column, tr=2.38 minutes (5 to 95% acetonitrile/water over 5 minutes at 1 ml/min with detection 254 nm, at 50° C.). ES-MS m/z 454 (M+H). ES-HRMS m/z 454.0070 (M+H calcd for C19H15BrF2NO5 requires 454.0096).
