Procedure
To a flask containing methyl 6-chloro-5-(4-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)-3-methoxyphenyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxylate (24.0 mg, 0.064 mmol) was added methanol (0.64 mL), and 1N NaOH (0.19 mL, 0.19 mmol). The reaction was heated at 70° C. for 18 h. The reaction was then concentrated to remove most of the methanol and then dissolved in water. 0.19 mL of 1N HCl was then added to the mixture to pH 2. Solid precipitated out. The solid was collected with a Buchner funnel and washed with water to provide crude 6-chloro-5-(4-(2-hydroxypropan-2-yl)-3-methoxyphenyl)-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid. The crude material was purified by reverse phase chromatography to give the title compound. MS (ES−) 358.1 (M−H)−: Retention time: 1.40 min. Column: Waters XBridge dC18 4.6×50 mm, 5 μm.
