Participants

Reaction Steps

(Method H5) A mixture of 3-(4-benzoylamino-phenyl)-acrylic acid methyl ester (4b) (1.650 g, 5.87 mmol) and LiOH (0.630 g, 15 mmol) in water (30 ml) and methanol (30 ml) was stirred at ambient temperature for 24 hours. Methanol was evaporated and the residue was treated with hydrochloric acid to pH 4. The resulting precipitate was filtered off, washed with water (3×20 ml), and dried to give the title compound as a white solid (1.443 g, 92%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, HMDSO), δ: 6.44 (1H, d, J=16.0 Hz); 7.33-8.11(10H, m); 10.40 (1H, s).
