Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 3-(6-{[(2′,6′-dimethylbiphenyl-3-yl)methyl]amino}pyridin-3-yl)propanoate (0.170 g, 0.45 mmol) in a mixture of methanol (3 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) was added 1 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was neutralized with 1 M hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by preparative HPLC to give the title compound (0.017 g, yield 10%) as a colorless oil.
