Lithium hydroxide, monohydrate → HCID 22264352, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-((3,4,5-trimethoxyphenoxy)methyl)carbonyl-2-(methoxycarbonyl)methyl-4-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperazine (0.20 g, 0.42 mmol) in a methanol/water solution (20 mL, 3:1) was added lithium hydroxide, monohydrate (0.40 mL, 9.5 mmol). The resultant mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 30 min. At that time HPLC analysis showed complete conversion had occurred. The mixture was poured into ethyl acetate and washed sequentially with an aqueous acetic acid/water solution (pH<4), water, and brine. The organic layer was separated, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford 0.060 g of 1-((3,4,5-trimethoxyphenoxy)methyl)carbonyl-2-(carboxy)methyl-4-(4-fluorobenzyl)piperazine as a white solid; NMR (CDCl3) 7.4 (m, 2), 7.1 (m, 2), 6.2 (m, 2), 5.1 (m, 1), 4.7 (m, 3), 4.0 (m, 2), 3.8 (d, 9), 3.3-3.1 (m, 4), 2.6 (m, 2), 2.4 (m, 2) ppm, MS (ESI) 476.
