Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of methyl (+)-2-n-butyl-5-ethoxycarbonylacetyl-3-{2'-(1-trityl-1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl}methyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroimidazo[4,5-c]pyridine-4-carboxylate (395 mg) and tetrahydrofuran (4 ml) is added 90% formic acid (8 ml) under ice-cooling, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes, and evaporated under reduced pressure to remove the solvent. The resulting residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (solvent; chloroform/methanol) to give methyl (+)-2 -n-butyl-5-ethoxycarbonylacetyl-3-{2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl}methyl-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroimidazo[4,5-c]pyridine-4-carboxylate (270 mg) as foam.
