Participants

Reaction Steps

In a 50 mL round-bottomed flask, methyl 1-((S)-2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-cyclohexylacetyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylate (660 mg, 1.58 mmol, Eq: 1.00) was combined with THF (14.8 mL) and methanol (4.95 mL) to give a colorless solution. The solution was cooled in an ice-bath and 1 M aqueous lithium hydroxide (4.74 mL, 4.74 mmol, Eq: 3) was added. The cooling bath was removed and the reaction was stirred at rt for 1 h. 0.1 M Aqueous KHSO4 (4 mL) was added and the resulting mixture was extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give 1-((S)-2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-cyclohexylacetyl)-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid as a white solid (600 mg), m/z=404 (M+H).
