Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 5-benzyloxy-2-[1-(4-chlorophenyl)-cyclopentylmethyl]-6-hydroxypyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid [2-(tert-butyl-dimethylsilanyloxy)-ethyl]-cyclopropylmethyl-amide (329) (580 mg, crude) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) was added 1N aq.HCl (6 mL) at room temperature and stirring was continued for 1 h (TLC; 100% ethyl acetate/UV/SiO2, Rf=0.2). Tetrahydrofuran was removed in vacuo and the crude mass was dissolved in ethyl acetate (50 mL) and washed with NaHCO3 solution (10 mL), water (20 mL) and brine (20 mL); The organic phase was dried and concentrated in vacuo to get a crude mass which was purified by CombiFlash using a gradient eluent mixture of ethyl acetate and hexane to get pure 5-benzyloxy-2-[1-(4-chlorophenyl)-cyclopentylmethyl]-6-hydroxypyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid cyclopropylmethyl-(2-hydroxyethyl)-amide (330) (390 mg, 94% two steps) as an off-white sticky solid.
