Hydrochloric Acid → 4-(2-{(3,5-Bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-[2-(pyrimidin-2-yloxy)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl]-amino}-pyrimidin-5-yloxy)-butyric acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

Ethyl 4-(2-{(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-[2-(pyrimidin-2-yloxy)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl]-amino}-pyrimidin-5-yloxy)-butyrate (115 mg) is dissolved in ethanol (4 ml), and thereto is added 1N-aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1 ml) and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. To the reaction solution are added a 1N-hydrochloric acid and ethyl acetate, and the mixture is separated, and the organic layer is washed with a saturated brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform:methanol=1:0→9:1) to give 4-(2-{(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-[2-(pyrimidin-2-yloxy)-5-trifluoromethyl-benzyl]-amino}-pyrimidin-5-yloxy)-butyric acid (96 mg). MS (m/z): 676 [M+H]+
