Participants

Reaction Steps

E or Z-1-[2-[[2-(3-Chlorophenyl)-2-(2-methylphenyl)ethenyl]oxy]ethyl]-1,2, 5,6-tetrahydro-3-pyridine carboxylic acid methyl ester (0.55 g, 0.0013 mol) (prepared as described in Method D) was dissolved in ethanol (5 ml) and 12 N sodium hydroxide solution (0.33 ml) was introduced. After stirring the solution at room temperature for 3 h, 37% hydrochloric acid solution was added until the pH was measured as ca. 1. Dichloromethane (200 ml) was introduced, and the mixture was dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated to a residue, which was co-evaporated twice with acetone. Recrystallization from acetone/ethyl acetate provided the title compound (0.17 g, 30%) as a white solid, m.p. 214°-215°.
