Hydrochloric Acid → 5-Bromo-3-((tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino)thiophene-2-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

An aqueous 2 M lithium hydroxide solution (1 mL) was added to a solution of 5-bromo-3-tert-butoxycarbonylaminothiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (330.0 mg) in THF/water (1.6 mL/1.6 mL). The solution was stirred at room temperature overnight and was then neutralized with diluted HCl solution, and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The product with the molecular weight of 322.18 (C10H12BrNO4S) was obtained in this way; MS (ESI): 221, 223 (M-Boc+H+).
