Lithium hydroxide, monohydrate → 3-[2-(1-{[3,5-Bis(difluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]acetyl}piperidin-4-yl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]-4,5-dihydro-1,2-oxazole-5-carboxylic acid

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 3-[2-(1-{[3,5-bis(difluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]acetyl}piperidin-4-yl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]-4,5-dihydro-1,2-oxazole-5-carboxylate (1-1) (1.1 g) in tetrahydrofuran (7 ml) and water (2 ml) is added, at room temperature, lithium hydroxide monohydrate (0.28 g). The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 20 minutes, and then ice-cold 1N HCl solution is added. The aqueous phase is extracted with ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases are dried over sodium sulphate. The solids are filtered off and the solvent is distilled off. This gives 3-[2-(1-{[3,5-bis(difluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]acetyl}piperidin-4-yl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]-4,5-dihydro-1,2-oxazole-5-carboxylic acid (0.82 g, 73%).
