Methanol → 2-(1,4-Diazabicyclo[3.2.2]nonan-4-yl)-5-nitroisonicotinic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 2-(1,4-diazabicyclo[3.2.2]nonan-4-yl)5-nitroisonicotinate (Intermediate 27A) (6.0 g, 19.6 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (15 mL) under nitrogen was added lithium hydroxide (2.47 g, 58.8 mmol), methanol (10 mL) and water (15 mL), reaction then stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated and purified by a 50 g silica column eluting with 10-40% methanol in DCM to afford 2-(1,4-diazabicyclo[3.2.2]nonan-4-yl)-5-nitroisonicotinic acid (3.2 g, 10.9 mmol).
