Procedure

Next, a solution of (E)-4-(2-methyl-benzothiazol-6-yl)-but-3-enoic acid methyl ester in THF (10 mL) is hydrogenated over 10% Pd/C (22 mg, 10% wet) at 1 atm for 48 hours. The catalyst is filtered through Celite and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by flash chromatography (heptane:EtOAc, 2:1) to give 4-(2-methyl-benzothiazol-6-yl)-butyric acid methyl ester. MS 250.4 (M+1).
