Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

470 mg (0.97 mmol) of N-[3-fluoro-4-({3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-[(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl]-1H-pyrrolo-[2,3-b]pyridin-4-yl}oxy)phenyl]acetamide are dissolved in 25 ml of ethanol. 10 ml of 20% strength aqueous sodium hydroxide solution are added, and the reaction mixture is stirred at 90° C. overnight. Most of the solvent is removed under reduced pressure, the residue is taken up in ethyl acetate and partitioned between ethyl acetate and 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted. The organic phase is washed with 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and dried over magnesium sulfate, and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure.
