2,6-Lutidine → HCID 66782404, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl 5-methylaminopentanoate hydrochloride (7.27 g, 40.0 mmol), 3-[4-(biphenyl-2-ylcarbamoyloxy)piperidin-1-yl]propionic acid (13.3 g, 36.0 mmol) and 1-hydroxy-7-azabenzotriazole (5.14 g, 37.8 mmol) in DCM (160 mL) and 2,6-lutidine (12.5 mL, 108 mmol) was stirred at room temperature for 3 h. N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (10.4 g, 54.0 mmol) was added and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. A saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (˜100 mL) was added and the layers were separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (50 mL) and the organic layers were combined, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (30-100% EtOAc in hexanes; then 2-10% MeOH in DCM) to give the title compound (12.38 g, 69% yield) as a light yellow thick oil/white solid.
