Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 10-amino-N-(4-fluorobenzyl)-3-hydroxy-4-oxo-4,6,7,8,9,10-hexahydro-7,10-ethanopyrimido[1,2-a]azepine-2-carboxamide (25 mg, 0.067 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (2 mL) was added triethylamine (0.05 mL) followed by acetyl chloride (0.05 mL). After 16 h at room temperature the reaction mixture was concentrated to give crude product which was dissolved in methanol (2 mL) and treated with 2M dimethylamine/methanol (0.5 mL). The resulting reaction mixture stirred at 60° C. for 2 h, cooled and purified by preparative HPLC to afford the title compound as a white solid (3 mg, 11% yield). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 12.00 (s, 1H), 7.32-7.35 (m, 3H), 7.04-7.09 (m, 2H), 6.69 (s, 1H), 4.57 (d, 2H, J=5.8 Hz), 4.14 (d, 2H, J=3.66 Hz), 2.63-2.66 (m, 2H), 2.44-2.47 (m, 1H), 1.91-1.97 (m, 4H), 1.86 (s, 3H), 1.63-1.67 (m, 2H). LCMS (M+H)=415.29. HPLC purity: >95%.
