Hydrochloric Acid → 6-[4-[2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)[(2R)-2-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]amino]ethyl]phenyl]-2-naphthoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 6-[4-[2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-[(2R)-2-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]amino]ethyl]-phenyl]-2-naphthoate (105 mg) and 1N sodium hydroxide (0.375 ml) in 1,4-dioxane (1 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. To the resulting mixture were added 1N hydrochloric acid (0.375 ml) and chloroform-methanol (5:1). After separation, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (chlorofom/methanol=10/1) to give 6-[4-[2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)[(2R)-2-(3-chlorophenyl)-2-hydroxyethyl]amino]ethyl]phenyl]-2-naphthoic acid (100 mg).
