Reaction Steps

17 (350 mg, 0.8 mmol) was suspended in 175 mL of EtOH. 10% (w/w, 38 mg) of 10% Pd/C catalyst was added to the hydrogenation flask (500 mL Pyrex® Parr reaction bottle tested to 120 psi, max. working pressure of 60 psi). The Parr hydrogenation system located in the VanNieuwenhze lab was used for the deprotection reactions. The hydrogen pressure was set to 35 psi with agitation, and the process went on for 41 h. A white precipitate was present even after the reaction was stopped, but this white product reacted with iron(III) to give a reddish product instead of no reaction as seen with the protected starting material. The catalyst was removed by vacuum filtration and separated from the product by dissolving the white precipitate in 125 mL hot CH2Cl2 and MeOH and THF. The clear solution was concentrated by rotary evaporation to yield a white solid. The solid was washed with MeOH to remove residual DCU to yield a white, feathery microcrystalline solid. Yield: 57%. 1H NMR (d6-DMSO, 400 MHz, 25° C.): δ 4.75 (s, 2H, —CH2—), 6.11 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 1H, Ar—H), 6.72 (d, J=7.2 Hz, 1H, Ar—H), 6.97 (m, 4H, Phenoxy-H), 7.11 (m, 2H, Ar—H, Phenoxy-H), 7.36 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 2H, Phenoxy-H), 7.58 (d, J=6.8 Hz, 2H, Phenoxy-H), 9.03 (s, 1H, —OH), 10.36 (s, 1H, APCI-MS: m/z 336.9 [M+H]+.
