Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl (2E)-3-(4-{[(3R)-1-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-3-pyrrolidinyl]amino}phenyl)acrylate (297 mg) in dioxane (3 mL) was added 1N NaOH aq solution (2.23 mL), and the mixture was heated at 70° C. for 18 hours. Resulting mixture was diluted with water and washed with ether. The pH value of aqueous phase was adjusted to 5, and the precipitate was collected by filtration and dried in vacuo to give (2E)-3-(4-{[(3R)-1-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-3-pyrrolidinyl]amino}phenyl)acrylic acid (103 mg) as pale yellow powder.
