33. The reported solvent/base combination gave the best results in terms of selectivity.
34. Although the reactions were performed under aqueous basic conditions, we had no evidence of methoxycarbonyl group hydrolysis.
35. At the end of the reaction, the unreacted haloamide was mostly transformed into the corresponding hydroxy-amide.
