Hydrochloric Acid → 2-(5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indazol-3-ylamino)acetic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

Preparation I6, Step 3: A sample of ethyl 2-(5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indazol-3-ylamino)acetate (75 mg) was dissolved in THF (6 mL). The resulting solution was charged successively with an aqueous solution of LiOH (12.5 mg in 2 mL water) and methanol (2 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred for 2 h before being acidified with 1N HCl and extracted with EtOAc. The organic extracts were combined, washed with water and brine, dried (sodium sulfate), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 2-(5-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-indazol-3-ylamino)acetic acid. MS found: (M+H)+=260.22.
