Lithium Hydroxide → Hydrochloric Acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

(R)-2-(4-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-4-(4-Chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-3-methoxy-benzoylamino)-pentanedioic acid dimethyl ester, hydrochloride (200 mg, 259 μmol) was suspended in 5 mL of tetrahydrofuran/water (4/1 ratio) then lithium hydroxide (100 mg) was added. After stirring at room temperature for 4 h, the reaction mixture was filtered, and the crude residue was purified by high-performance liquid chromatography (C18, eluting with 40-95% acetonitrile-water) to give (R)-2-(4-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-3-methoxy-benzoylamino)-pentanedioic acid, hydrochloride after lyophilization with acetonitrile and 1N solution of hydrochloric acid. MS (ES+) m/z calcd. for C36H37Cl2F2N4O7: [(M+H)+]745. found: 745.
