Trifluoroacetic acid → HCID 53713896, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-(-)-1-(4-benzyloxybutyl)-5-[2-[N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethylamino]propyl]indoline-7-carboxamide (523 mg) in methylene chloride (7.5 ml) was added dropwise trifluoroacetic acid (1.5 ml) with stirring under ice cooling, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 hours. To the reaction mixture was added a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by medium pressure liquid column chromatography on silica gel using a mixture of chloroform and methanol (10/1) as eluent to give 388 mg of (R)-(-)-1-(4-benzyloxybutyl)-5-[2-[2-[2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)phenoxy]ethylamino]propyl]indoline-7-carboxamide melting at 101°-102° C.
