Reaction Steps

A solution of trans-2-(3-benzyloxy-cyclobutyl)-2-methyl-propionic acid methyl ester (70 mg, 0.26 mmol) as 0.05 M solution in MeOH is pumped through the H-Cube™ flow hydrogenator fitted with 10 mol % Pd/C catalyst cartridge heated to 40° C. at 10 bar. The flow rate is set at 1 mL/min. The solvent is removed under reduced pressure to give trans-2-(3-hydroxy-cyclobutyl)-2-methyl-propionic acid methyl ester (54 mg, quant.); TLC (hexane/AcOEt, 1:1) Rf 0.45, 1H NMR (400 MHz, chloroform-d) δ ppm 1.12 (s, 6H), 1.92-2.03 (m, 2H), 2.18-2.24 (m, 2H), 2.63-2.71 (m, 1H), 3.65 (s, 3H), 4.25-4.31 (m, 1H).
