Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 3-(1,3-thiazol-2-ylsulfonyl)benzoate (82 mg) in methanol (1.5 mL) was added 1M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (0.58 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was ice-cooled, 1M hydrochloric acid (1.0 mL) was added thereto, and the precipitate was collected by filtration to give the title compound (67 mg).
