Sodium Hydroxide → HCID 52271559, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of #166 (272 mg, 1.10 mmol, 1 eq.) dissolved in methanol (2.96 mL) was added an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (2.5 M, 0.88 mL) and the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 3.5 hours. The reaction was quenched with 10% aqueous citric acid (5 mL), ethyl acetate (100 mL) was added, and the layers separated. The organic layer was washed with 10% citric acid, water, and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford #168 as a white solid. (253 mg, 99%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3), δ 3.96-3.69 (m, 3H), 3.59 (m, 1H), 2.59-2.33 (m, 2H), 1.51 (s, 9H). LC-MS (Protocol Q1): m/z 232.1 [M−H+], retention time=0.67 minutes. Chiral HPLC retention time: 3.39 min (purity=99%). (Column: Chiralpak AD-H, 4.6 mm×25 cm, mobile phase 5-60% CO2/Methanol, flow rate 3.0 mL/min); Optical rotation: [α]D25 4.8 (c=0.52, MeOH)
