Triethylamine → HCID 178501391, compound

To a solution of phenyl imidazole (1.0 mmol) in DMF (3 mL) was added triethylamine (1.1 mmol). After stirred for 10 min, a solution of 4,4′-Dimethoxytrityl chloride (1.0 mmol) in DMF (2 mL) was added dropwise. After stirred overnight under a nitrogen atmosphere, the reaction mixture was poured into ice water (10 mL). The solid was filtered off, washed with cold water and dissolved in ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated the crude product was taken into next step without further purification. To a suspension of (R)-methyl 2-amino-3-(1-methyl-1H-indol-3-yl)propanoate (0.5 mmol) (prepared as described by Paul Cox, Donald Craig, Stephanos Ioannidis, Volker S. Rahn, Tetrahedron Letters 2005, 46, 4687) in DCM (3 mL) was added triphosgene (0.5 mmol) and Et3N (2.0 mmol) at 0° C. The solution was allowed to stir for 1 h and was concentrated to dryness. The crude residue was used immediately in the next step without purification. The crude residue was dissolved in DCM (5 mL), the phenyl imidazole derivative (0.5 mmol) and DMAP (1.5 mmol) were added. The resulting solution was allowed to stir at room temperature over night. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the crude residue was filtered through a plug of silica gel and concentrated. To the residue was added MeOH (3 mL) and AcOH (2 mL) and the solution was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. The solution was diluted with water and made basic with solid K2CO3 (pH˜8-9). The aqueous was extracted with EtOAc and the combined organic layers were washed with water, brine and dried (Na2SO4). The crude residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel afforded the compound (21% yield). 1H NMR: 3.20-3.48 (m, 2H), 3.66 (s, 3H), 3.70 (s, 3H), 4.61-4.75 (m, 1H), 6.57 (d, 1H, J=7.2 Hz), 6.90-7.30 (m, 7H), 7.50-7.58 (m, 1H), 7.10-7.76 (m, 2H).
