Participants

Reaction Steps

A 2N solution of LiOH (50 mL) in water was slowly added to the title compound of step 1 (10 g, 52.4 mmol) in MeOH (250 mL) at 0° C. The mixture was allowed to warm to rt and stirred for 30 min. The MeOH was reduced under vacuum and the residual aqueous solution was washed with EtOAc. The organic phase was re-extracted with water. The combined aqueous extracts were acidified to pH=2 with 1N HCl. The water was removed and preparative HPLC gave the title compound (5.4 g, 63%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (CD3OD, 400 MHz): δ 8.45 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H), 7.88 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 1H), 3.39 (t, J=8.0, 7.6 Hz, 2H), 3.16 (d, t, J=8.0, 7.6 Hz, 2H), 2.16-2.20 (m, 2H).
