Hydrochloric Acid → Methyl 4'-[2-(benzylamino)ethyl]-3-(isopropylamino)-4-biphenylcarboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 4′-[2-[benzyl(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)ethyl]-3-(isopropylamino)-4-biphenylcarboxylate (768 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (8 ml) was added 4N hydrogen chloride solution in 1,4-dioxane (8 ml) at 0° C., and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue was diluted with chloroform and water. The mixture was basified with aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (1N) and the organic layer was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated under reduced pressure to give methyl 4′-[2-(benzylamino)ethyl]-3-(isopropylamino)-4-biphenylcarboxylate (600 mg).
