Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of sulfonamide VII (34 gm, 95.5 mmol) in THF and water (1:1), LiOH (20 gm, 47.66 mmol) was added and the resulting mixture was allowed to stir at 80° C. overnight. After completion of reaction, the crude mixture was washed with EtOAc. The aqueous layer was acidified with citric acid and filtered. Thus obtained solid was washed with Et2O and azeotroped by toluene, under reduced pressure to afford acid VIII (30 gm, 95.8% yield) which was taken forward for the next step without further purification.
