Reaction Steps

To a solution of rac-4-chloro-3-hydroxy-2-(trans-2-hydroxycyclohexyl)-5-methoxy-6-[4-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)benzyl]-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindol-1-one (0.07 g) in dichloromethane (2.00 mL) was added trifluoroacetic acid (0.50 mL) under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred for 15 min. Then, triethylsilane (0.40 mL) was added thereto, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was poured into saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (×2). The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by prep-HPLC, then lyophilized to give the title compound (0.02 g).
