Participants

Reaction Steps

2′-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-biphenyl-4-carbaldehyde (0.79 g; 3.2 mmol) and L-Valine (0.4 g; 3.4 mmol) are suspended in 15 ml methanol. Then sodium hydroxide is added (0.27 g; 6.72 mmol) and the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature until a clear solution is obtained. 5% Pt/C (15.8 mg; 2 wt/wt-%) is added. The autoclave is sealed and flushed with argon and hydrogen. The pressure is set to 5 bars and the reaction is stirred at 60° C. The reaction completion is monitored by HPLC. Then the autoclave is flushed with argon and the catalyst is filtered off. Further work-up and crystallisation are done similar to example 1 b2).
