Reaction Steps

To a solution of compound ethyl 5-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-phenylthiazole-4-carboxylate (348 mg, 1 mmol) in MeOH/H2O (10 mL, 1:1) was added LiOH.H2O (20 mg, 5 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated at 50-55° C. until starting material disappeared from TLC. It was cooled at about 0-4° C. and conc. HCl added dropwise until pH of about 5. The resulted mixture was then extracted with DCM (3×20 mL). Combined organic layers were washed with brine (2×20 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (50:1 DCM:MeOH) to give the 5-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-phenylthiazole-4-carboxylic acid (0.22 g, 68%) as white solid: 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ (ppm): 9.69 (s, 1H), 7.89-7.91 (m, 2H), 7.46-7.47 (m, 3H), 1.57 (s, 9H); MS (ESI) m/z: 321 [M+H+]
