Potassium Hydroxide → HCID 57431526, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2.5 g (9.12 mmol) of methyl 6-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine-3-carboxylate, obtained in step 11.1, and of 0.76 g (13.67 mmol) of potassium hydroxide in 50 ml of methanol and 2 ml of water is stirred for 24 hours at 20° C. The mixture is subsequently concentrated under reduced pressure. 100 ml of water are subsequently added and the solution is washed with 100 ml of dichloromethane and then acidified to pH 4 by the addition of concentrated hydrochloric acid. A precipitate is recovered by filtration and is washed with 50 ml of water. After drying under reduced pressure, 2.2 g of the expected compound are isolated.
