Lithium hydroxide, monohydrate → 5-[5-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-3-methyl-3H-[1,2,3]triazol-4-ylmethoxy]-pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of lithium hydroxide monohydrate (107 mg, 2.55 mmol) in water (3.2 mL) was added dropwise to a suspension of 5-[5-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-3-methyl-3H-[1,2,3]triazol-4-ylmethoxy]-pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (438 mg, 1.27 mmol) in THF (1.8 mL). The reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 1 h and was then evaporated and the residue dissolved in water, acidified with HCl (1N), and the resulting precipitate filtered off to afford the title product (403 mg, 96%) as a white solid. MS: m/e=328.1 [M−H]−.
