Sodium Hydroxide → {9-[(Phenyl)methyl]-5-carbamoylcarbazol-4-yl}oxyacetic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of the {9-[(phenyl)methyl]-5-carbamoylcarbazol-4-yl}oxyacetic acid, methyl ester (10.1 mg, 0.025 mM) and 0.025 mL (0.025 mM) of 1 N NaOH in 3 mL of ethanol was stirred for 16 h at 25° C. The resultant white precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with a small amount of EtOH, then dried in vacuo to afford 7.1 mg (70%) of the {9-[(phenyl)methyl]-5-carbamoylcarbazol-4-yl}oxyacetic acid, sodium salt as a white powder. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 7.6 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 7.5-7.05 (m, 11H), 6.55 (d, 1H, J=8 Hz), 5.75 (s, 2H), and 4.3 (s, 2H). IR (KBr, cm−1) 3471, 1657, 1615, 1591, 1496, 1453, 1412, 1330, 1272, and 1151. MS (ES) m/e 373, 375, 397. Elemental Analyses for C22H17N2O4Na: C, 66.67; H, 4.29; N, 7.07. Found: C, 66.75; H, 4.55; N, 6.83.
