3(R)-[3-(biphenyl-4-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]-N-[2-hydroxy-1(S)-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylpropyl]succinamic acid benzyl ester → 3(R)-[3-(biphenyl-4-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]-N-[2-hydroxy-1(S)-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylpropyl]succinamic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

According to the procedure described in Example 1(a), a mixture of 3(R)-[3-(biphenyl-4-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]-N-[2-hydroxy-1(S)-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylpropyl]succinamic acid benzyl ester (137 mg, 0.26 mmol) in EtOH (2.5 mL) and EtOAc (2.5 mL) was hydrogenolyzed after 110 minutes to give a white solid, which was triturated with CH2Cl2/hex to provide 85 mg (75%) of 3(R)-[3-(biphenyl-4-yl)-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]-N-[2-hydroxy-1(S)-(hydroxymethyl)-2-methylpropyl]succinamic acid as a white solid, mp 150-2° C.
