Reaction Steps

5-(3,3-Dimethyl-but-1-ynyl)-3-[(1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]dec-8-yl)-((1R)-4-methyl-cyclohex-3-enecarbonyl)-amino]-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester 506 (219 mg, 0.438 mmol) was dissolved in THF (3.5 mL) and treated with 4M HCl (1.75 mL, 7.01 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to 45° C. and stirred 2 h. Ethyl acetate was added and the organic layer was separated then washed with water, sodium bicarbonate (sat aq), water, and brine. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to 0.190 g (95% yield) of the desired 5-(3,3-dimethyl-but-1-ynyl)-3-[((1R)-4-methyl-cyclohex-3-enecarbonyl)-(4-oxo-cyclohexyl)-amino]-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester 507 as a white foam.
