Trifluoroacetic acid → 2-(2-Hydroxy-5-phenylbenzamido)-4-phenylbenzoic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

Trifluoroacetic acid (1 mL) was added to a methylene chloride (3 mL) solution of the obtained tert-butyl 2-(2-hydroxy-5-phenylbenzamido)-4-phenylbenzoate (0.085 g), followed by stirring at room temperature for 17 hours. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and ethyl acetate was added to the residue. The solid substance was collected by filtration to obtain 0.072 g of 2-(2-hydroxy-5-phenylbenzamido)-4-phenylbenzoic acid as a white solid.
