Hydrochloric Acid → Benzoic Acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 140 mg of methyl 4-{2-[4-({[2-({3-[(cyclopropyl {2-[(2-ethoxy-2-oxoethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)methyl]benzoyl}amino)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen-3-yl]carbonyl}amino)phenyl]ethyl}benzoate, 1.0 mL of a 1.0M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution, 1.0 mL of methanol, and 2.0 mL of THF was stirred overnight at room temperature. To the reaction mixture was added 1.0 mL of 1.0 M hydrochloric acid. The precipitated solid was collected by filtration, thereby obtaining 113 mg of 4-(2-{4-[({2-[(3-{[{2-[(carboxymethyl)amino]ethyl}(cyclopropyl)amino]methyl}benzoyl)amino]-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-benzothiophen-3-yl}carbonyl)amino]phenyl)}ethyl)benzoic acid.
