Trifluoroacetic acid → (3-{[Methanesulfonyl-(4-thiazol-2-yl-benzyl)-amino]-methyl}-phenoxy)-acetic Acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (3-{[methanesulfonyl-(4-thiazol-2-yl-benzyl)-amino]-methyl}-phenoxy)-acetic acid tert-butyl ester (0.074 g) in 2 mL CH2Cl2 was cooled to 0° C. and 2 mL acetic acid tert-butyl ester (0.074 g) in 2 mL CH2Cl2 was cooled to 0° C. and 2 mL trifluoroacetic acid was added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The solvent was removed by evaporation azeotroping with CH2Cl2 to afford the title compound (40 mg). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 9.94 (bs, 1H), 8.14 (s, 1H), 7.81 (d, 2H), 7.55 (s, 1H), 7.37 (d, 2H), 7.18 (m, 1H), 6.90 (d, 1H), 6.80 (d, 1H), 6.63 (s, 1H), 4.58 (s, 2H), 4.35 (s, 2H), 4.29 (s, 2H), 2.93 (s, 3H); MS 431 (M−1).
