Reaction Steps

To a 25 mL volume three-necked flask, 1-[2-(2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenyl)-2-oxoacetyl]-1-methyl-2-(1-methylsulfonyl-2-propylidene)hydrazine ((4-34)-(1)-39) (1.95 g), toluene (4.85 ml), and methanol (1.05 ml) were added under a nitrogen atmosphere, then added lithium hydroxide monohydrate (169 mg) at 0° C. After the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 4 hours, 10 w/w % of hydrochloric acid was added to adjust to pH to less than 1, and extracted with toluene 3 times. The organic layers were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1) to give 1.077 g of 4-(2,6-diethyl-4-methylphenyl)-2,6-dimethyl-5-methylsulfonyl-2,3-dihydro-3-pyridazinone ((2-34)-(1)-39).
