Methanol → 3-(3-(Dimethylcarbamoyl)phenylsulfonamido)thiophene-2-carboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl 3-(3-(dimethylcarbamoyl)phenylsulfonamido)thiophene-2-carboxylate (Int. 79, 200 mg, 0.543 mmol) was dissolved in MeOH (4 ml, 99 mmol). NaOH 1M (2 ml) was added, and the reaction was stirred at RT for 8 hours to achieve completion. The reaction mixture was diluted with HCl 1N and extracted with AcOEt. The organic phase was washed with HCl 1N and brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under vacuum to give 3-(3-(dimethylcarbamoyl)phenylsulfonamido)thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (Int. 80, 150 mg, 0.423 mmol).
