Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl (R)-4-((R)-3-(1-(2-aminoethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazoI-2-yl)piperidin-1-yl)-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-oxobutan-2-ylcarbamate (129D) was added to a 25 mL round-bottomed flask equipped for stirring under nitrogen. Dichloromethane (5 mL) was added and the solution was cooled to 0° C. with an ice/water bath. Acetyl chloride (0.703 mmoles; 0.050 mL) and pyridine (2.47 mmoles, 0.200 mL) were then added and the resultant solution was stirred at 0° C. for 10 min. Solution was allowed to warm to it and stirred for 1 hr. The reaction solution was subsequently concentrated in-vacuo, re-dissolved in methanol (3 mL), and then directly purified by preparative LC/MS (20-90% CH3CN in H2O) to afford tert-butyl (R)-4-((R)-3-(1-(2-acetamidoethyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)piperidin-1-yl)-1-(naphthalen-2-yl)-4-oxobutan-2-ylcarbamate (129E) as a clear oil (0.038 mmoles, 0.023 g, 36% yield over 2-steps). ESI-MS: m/z 598.5 (M+H)+.
