Reaction Steps

(R)-({7-[3-tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-4-(2,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl)-butyryl]-3-trifluoromethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazine-1-carbonyl}-amino)-acetic acid methyl ester 16a (0.09 g, 0.145 mmol) and 2 mL of ethyl acetate were added into the reaction flask. A solution of 2.3 N hydrochloric acid in 4 mL of ethyl acetate was then added to the flask. The reaction mixture was reacted at room temperature for 3 hours and monitored by thin layer chromatography until the disappearance of the starting materials. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound (R)-({7-[3-amino-4-(2,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl)-butyryl]-3-trifluoromethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazine-1-carbonyl}-amino)-acetic acid methyl ester hydrochloride 16 (80 mg, yield 99%) as a white solid.
