Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of compound 11d (303 mg, 0.79 mmol), and LiOH.H2O (132.7 mg, 3.16 mmol) in THF/H2O (10 mL/10 mL) was stirred at 45° C. for 5 h. The resulting mixture was concentrated and diluted with water. The water layer was acidified with 1N aqueous HCl to pH˜4 and extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic solution was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give 11e (249 mg). MS m/z (M+H+) 256.0.
