Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of methyl 4-[3-(2-tert-butyl-4-chlorophenoxy)azetidin-1-yl]-4-oxobutanoate (236 mg, 0.67 mmol) obtained in Example 188 in THF (5.0 ml) was added lithium hydroxide (1.0M aqueous solution, 5.0 mL, 5.0 mmol) at room temperature. After 3 hr, the reaction mixture was adjusted to about pH 1 with 1.0N hydrochloric acid. The obtained solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated sodium chloride, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (222 mg, 98%) as a white solid.
