Hydrochloric Acid → 7-(3-{[(2-Fluoro-5-methylphenyl)amino]carbonyl}phenoxy)thieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of methyl 7-(3-((2-fluoro-5-methylphenyl)carbamoyl)phenoxy)thieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate (170 mg, 0.39 mmol) in 15 ml of MeOH was added 1 ml of 1M NaOH. Reaction was complete within 2.5 hours. The mixture was poured into 100 ml of water and acidified with 2M HCl to pH=5 with vigorous stirring. The precipitates were filtered, washed with water and dried in vacuo to give 7-(3-{[(2-fluoro-5-methylphenyl)amino]carbonyl}phenoxy)thieno[3,2-b]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid as white solid. Yield: 150 mg, 91%.
