Trifluoroacetic acid → 1-{[(R)-5-(4-Cyano-benzyl)-7-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-5-methyl-6-oxo-6,7-dihydro-5H-imidazo[1,2-a]imidazole-3-carbonyl]-amino}-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid

Reaction Steps

1-{[(R)-5-(4-Cyano-benzyl)-7-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-5-methyl-6-oxo-6,7-dihydro-5H-imidazo[1,2-a]imidazole-3-carbonyl]-amino}-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (3.8 g, 6.55 mmol) was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (100 mL), and. TFA (20 mL) was then added dropwise to the solution. The mixture was stirred overnight. After evaporation of the solvent in vacuo, the residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (5% MeOH/CH2Cl2) to give 1-{[(R)-5-(4-cyano-benzyl)-7-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-5-methyl-6-oxo-6,7-dihydro-5H-imidazo[1,2-α]imidazole-3-carbonyl]-amino}-cyclopropane-carboxylic acid (3.4 g, 6.48 mmol, 99.0%) as a white solid, m/z 524.3 [M+1]+.
