Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of the hydrochloride salt (0.17 g, 0.51 mmol) obtained in step II above in DMSO (2.0 mL) at room temperature under nitrogen atmosphere was added (2S)-1-(chloroacetyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile (0.09 g, 0.52 mmol) and K2CO3 (0.35 g, 2.55 mmol. After stirring the reaction mixture for 3 h, it was diluted with EtOAc and washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4 and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography to obtain (2S)-1-{N-[2-(thiomorpholin-4-ylmethyl)hexahydro-2,5-methanopentalen-3a(1H)-yl]glycyl}pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile as an off-white solid (0.07 g) in 35% yield. m/z (M+1) 389; 1H NMR (CDCl3) 300 MHz δ 4.83-4.75 (m, 1H), 3.90-3.45 (m, 4H), 2.85-2.70 (m, 4H), 2.70-2.60 (m, 4H), 2.48-2.35 (m, 2H), 2.35-2.15 (m, 4H), 2.0-1.75 (m, 4H), 1.68-1.40 (m, 5H), 1.38-1.25 (m, 1H).
