Sodium Hydroxide → Disodium 6-[(3-cyclobutyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepin-7-yl)oxy]-2,3-pyridinedicarboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium hydroxide (0.66 g) in water (3 ml) was added to a solution of dimethyl 6-[(3-cyclobutyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-3-benzazepin-7-yl)oxy]-2,3-pyridinedicarboxylate (E231) (1.69 g, 4.12 mmol) in ethanol (20 ml) at room temperature. The mixture was vigorously stirred at room temperature for 4 h and the resulting precipitate filtered off to give the title compound as a colourless solid (E232); MS (ES+) m/e 383 [M+H]+.
