Potassium Carbonate → HCID 14695585, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a dried methanol solution (100 ml) of 3-(2'-fluoro-4'-chloro-5'-methoxycarbonyloxyphenyl)-5-isopropylidene-1,3-oxazolidine-2,4-dione (3.44 g, 10 mmol), which was synthesized by a method shown in Reference Example 12 described below, was added potassium carbonate (1.38 g, 10 mmol) and the mixture was heated at reflux for 2 hours. After the reaction was completed, the resulting mixture was quenched with an aqueous solution of ammonium chloride and extracted with ether. The ethereal extracts were dried and evaporated as small a volume as possible. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give pure 3-(2'-fluoro-4'-chloro-5'-hydroxyphenyl)-5-isopropylidene-1,3-oxazolidine-2,4-dione (1.60 g).
