Reaction Steps

To 2-{6-[1-ethyl-3-(4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)ureido]-3-methoxy-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-ylsulfanyl}-2-methylpropionic acid tert butyl ester (0.02 g; 0.03 mmol) dissolved in CH2Cl2 (1.5 mL) was added TFA (1.5 mL) and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by reverse-phase semi-prep HPLC eluting with a MeCN—H2O gradient to yield 2-{6-[1ethyl-3-(4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl)ureido]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-ylsulfanyl}-2-methylpropionic acid as a white solid.
