Reaction Steps

150 mg (0.4 mmol) of methyl(S)-2-{3-ethyl-3-[2-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethyl]ureido}-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propionate are diluted in 4 mL of THF and 1 mL of water, and 150 mg (6 mmol) of lithium hydroxide are added. The mixture is heated for 10 minutes at 100° C. in a microwave reactor. The solvents are evaporated off and the residue is then purified on a pad of silica (eluent: 1/1 dichloromethane/methanol). 100 mg of 2-{3-ethyl-3-[2-(1H-imidazol-4-yl)ethyl]ureido}-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propionic acid in the form of a pale yellow powder are obtained in a yield of 69%.
