Reaction Steps

Methyl(5-{3-[4-(4-isopropoxy-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenoxy]propoxy}-1H-indol-1-yl)acetate (Example 56, 204 mg, 0.40 mmol) was dissolved in THF (3 mL) in a round bottom flask, and LiOH.H2O (67 mg, 1.60 mmol) in water (1 mL) was added. The mixture was stirred at rt for 16 h. The solvents were evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue was suspended in small volume of water. The pH of the mixture was adjusted to 3 with 1 N HCl. The aqueous layer was immediately extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were dried, filtered, and concentrated to give 182 mg (91%) of the product as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 7.42 (s, 1H), 7.32 (d, 1H), 7.15-7.08 (m, 2H), 7.04 (d, 1H), 6.88 (dd, 1H), 6.82 (d, 1H), 6.52 (d, 1H), 5.96 (s, 1H), 4.85 (s, 2H), 4.70-4.60 (q, 1H), 4.35-4.20 (m, 4H), 3.88 (s, 3H), 2.38-2.28 (m, 2H), 1.42 (d, 6H).
