Hydrochloric Acid → 6-Cyclopropyl-3-(pyrimidin-5-ylamino)-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 6-cyclopropyl-3-(pyrimidin-5-ylamino)-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.85 g, 6.5 mmol) from example A-1 in EtOH (15 ml) was treated with 1N NaOH (13 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred at rt overnight. The compact suspension was brought to pH 6 by addition of 1N HCl. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with EtOH and dried to give the product (1.29 g, 77%) as off-white solid.
