Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of ethyl 2-[3,5-di-(2-chlorobenzyloxy)benzoyl]aminothiazole-5-carboxylate (158 mg, 0.28 mmol) in THF (2 ml) was treated with sodium hydroxide solution (0.57 ml of 2M, 1.4 mmol), and the reaction stirred at 40-50 deg C., until complete hydrolysis was achieved (with tlc monitoring, approximate reaction time 2 hrs). The resulting solution was cooled, diluted with water (5 ml) and acidified to pH1 using c.HCl. The precipitate thus formed was filtered off, washed (water) and dried to give the title compound as a colourless solid, 130 mg, 1 NMR δ (d6-DMSO): 5.25 (4H, s); 7.0 (1H, s); 7.4 (6H, m); 7.5 (2H, m); 7.6 (2H, m); 8.2 (1H, d).
