Lithium Hydroxide → 3-[({(1S,2R)-1-benzyl-2-hydroxy-3-[(3-methoxybenzyl)amino]propyl}amino)carbonyl]-4-methylbenzoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-[({(1S,2R)-1-benzyl-2-hydroxy-3-[(3-methoxybenzyl)amino]propyl}amino) carbonyl]-4-methylbenzoate (200 mg, 0.42 mmol) is treated with lithium hydroxide (39 mg, 0.96 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran/methanol/water (2/1/1, 2 ml), and the mixture stirred overnight at 20–25 degrees C. The mixture is decanted and the supernatant concentrated to give 3-[({(1S,2R)-1-benzyl-2-hydroxy-3-[(3-methoxybenzyl)amino]propyl}amino)carbonyl]-4-methylbenzoic acid.
