Procedure

To a solution of 4-({[4-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-2-methyl-phenyl]-methyl-amino}-methyl)-2-methyl-benzoic acid methyl ester (1.0 g, 2.1 mmol) in THF (20.0 mL) is added 1.0 M TBAF/THF (3.2 mL, 3.2 mmol) at room temperature. The reaction mixture is stirred for 1.0 h. The reaction mixture is partitioned between EtOAc (30 mL) and water (30 mL). The organic phase is washed with brine (30 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to a residue. The residue is purified by flash chromatography to give the title compound as oil (0.45 g, 62%). LC-ES/MS: 300.3 (M+1), 298.3 (M−1).
