Ethanol → 4-(3-(7-methoxy-2-oxoquinolin-1(2H)-yl)propyl)-1-(2-(2-thienylthio)ethyl)piperidine-4-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 1 mL of an ethanol solution containing 90 mg of ethyl 4-(3-(7-methoxy-2-oxoquinolin-1(2H)-yl)propyl)-1-(2-(2-thienylthio)ethyl)piperidine-4-carboxylate, 0.3 mL of 20% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was added and refluxed with heating for 1.5 hours. Then, more 0.3 mL of 20% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was added and refluxed with heating for 3 hours. After the reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, water was added, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. Water was added, and adjusted to pH 6.7 with 6.0 mol/L hydrochloric acid. The resulting solid was filtered to afford 57 mg of 4-(3-(7-methoxy-2-oxoquinolin-1(2H)-yl)propyl)-1-(2-(2-thienylthio)ethyl)piperidine-4-carboxylic acid as a white solid.
