Participants

Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution (10 mL) of sodium hydroxide (0.82 g, 20.6 mol) was added to an ethanol (20 mL) solution of methyl 2-methyl-2-[4-(1-methylpiperidin-4-ylidene)-4,10-dihydro-9-oxa-3-thiabenzo[f]azulen-6-ylsulfanyl]propionate hydrochloride [Compound 189] (0.88 g, 1.8 mmol), and the mixture was refluxed while heating for 6 hours. The solvents were distilled off under a reduced pressure, the residue was then dissolved in water, the solution was neutralized with a diluted hydrochloric acid, and the precipitated crystals were separated by filtration and dried, to give 0.67 g (72%) of the captioned compound in the form of crystals.
