Hydrochloric Acid → (S)-3-(2-chloro-3-fluorobenzyl)-1-(1-hydroxypent-4-en-2-yl)-1-methylurea

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (S)-1-(1-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)pent-4-en-2-yl)-3-(2-chloro-3-fluorobenzyl)-1-methylurea (5.80 g, 10.8 mmol) in MeOH (50 mL) was added HCl (1N, 32.0 mL). The resulting solution was stirred at RT for 30 min. The mixture was partially concentrated and filtered. The filtrate was purified on RP-HPLC using a mixture of acetonitrile and water to give (S)-3-(2-chloro-3-fluorobenzyl)-1-(1-hydroxypent-4-en-2-yl)-1-methylurea (2.0 g, 77%) as a white solid, which was used without further purification. LRMS (M+H+) m/z 301.2.
