Reaction Steps

Methanesulfonamide (0.02 g, 0.2 mmol), N-ethyl-N-isopropylpropan-2-amine (0.05 ml, 0.3 mmol), di(1H-imidazol-1-yl)methanone (0.04 g, 0.2 mmol) and 2-((3R,5R,6S)-5-(3-chlorophenyl)-6-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-((R)-1-ethoxy-1-oxobutan-2-yl)-2-oxopiperidin-3-yl)acetic acid (Example 3, 0.030 g, 0.06 mmol) were combined in 2 mL of THF. After being stirred at 25° C. for 12 h, sat. NH4Cl solution was added and the reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were successively washed with sat. aq. NaHCO3 solution and sat. aq. NaCl solution, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by reversed phase HPLC (10 to 90% AcCN/H2O with 0.1% TFA in 45 min) to give the title compound as a white solid.
