Participants

Reaction Steps

2-(6-chloro-5-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4′-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-3-yl)-3-cyclopropylpropanoate (80 mg) was dissolved in 10 mL of MeOH/THF/H2O (10 mL/10 mL/5 mL) and 57 mg LiOH added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 h and then concentrated under reduced pressure. Water (10 mL) was added and the reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×10 mL). The combined organic phases were dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by column chromatography over silica gel (hexane/EtOAc 9:1) gave compound 2-(6-chloro-5-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-4′-(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl-3-yl)-3-cyclopropylpropanoic acid (45 mg) as a white solid. 1H-NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3): 7.71 (d, 2H), 7.54 (d, 2H), 6.95 (d, 1H), 6.87 (s, 1H), 3.97 (d, 2H), 3.64 (t, 1H), 2.55 (m, 2H), 1.96 (m, 1H), 1.08 (m, 1H), 0.84 (m, 1H), 0.44 (m, 4H), 0.16 (m, 4H).
