Reaktionsschritte

To a 250 mL round bottom flask attached with condenser was added N-(4-bromophenyl)-2-(2-fluorophenyl)-2-methylpropanimidamide (5.0 g, 15 mmol), anhydrous THF (80 mL), NaHCO3 (2.52 g, 30 mmol), and 90% ethyl bromopyruvate (1.90 mL, 15.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 70° C. for 2 hr prior to analysis by LCMS. The cooled reaction mixture was decanted and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was taken into toluene (65 mL) and acetic acid (1.8 mL). The solution was stirred at reflux for 1 hr. The cooled solution was washed with H2O (150 mL×3), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, concentrated in vacuo, and chromatographed through a SiO2 column using a 100% Hx to 70% EtOAc gradient to afford purified title compound (4.3 g, 67% yield). LCMS (ES): m/z=431.3, 433.3 [M+H]+.
