Benzyl 2-(3-methyl[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-8-yl)acrylate → 2-(3-Methyl[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-8-yl)propanoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 0.040 mg (0.038 mmol) of 10% palladium on carbon was added a solution of (0.080 g, 0.27 mmol) of benzyl 2-(3-methyl[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyridin-8-yl)acrylate prepared in Step C above in 4 mL of methanol. The resulting suspension was stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen (1 atmosphere) for 6 h. The residue was filtered through a pad of Celite® and the pad was washed cold methanol. The combined filtrates were evaporated under reduced pressure to give yield the title compound (0.043 g, 77%). LC-MS: iniz (ES) 206 (MH)+.
