Procedure

To a solution of (R)-methyl 2-acetoxy-3-(2-(methoxymethyl)-7-methyl-2H-indazol-5-yl)propanoate (2.70 g, 8.4 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) and methanol (20 mL) at 0° C. was added a solution of lithium hydroxide monohydrate (1.41 g, 4.0 equiv) in water (20 mL). The reaction was stirred at 0° C. for 1 h. The reaction was concentrated, dissolved in water (5 mL), cooled to 0° C., and treated with 1M hydrochloric acid until mildly acidic. The solution was was extracted extensively with ethyl acetate and then dichloromethane. The organics were combined, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated to give 1.40 g (63%) as an oil which solidified to a crystalline solid upon standing. 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ 2.40 (s, 3H), 2.78 (dd, J=14.0, 7.9, 1H), 3.00 (dd, J=14.0, 4.0, 1H), 3.18 (s, 3H), 4.24 (dd, J=7.9, 4.3, 1H), 5.47 (s, 2H), 6.85 (s, 1H), 7.22 (s, 1H), 7.90 (s, 1H).
