4-[1-(4-Cyano-3-methyl-benzoyl)-9-chloro-2-methyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,3,6-triaza-benzo[e]azulene-6-carbonyl]-2-methyl-benzonitrile from E125.1 (124 mg, 0.24 mmol) was dissolved in MeOH 5 ml). 2M NaOH (2 ml) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 1 h. at room temperature. The solvents were removed in vacuo, and azeotroped with toluene. The residue was taken up in EtOAc, was with saturated NaHCO3 then brine, dried and concentrated in vacuo to yield the title compound (80 mg, 89%)
