Sodium hydride → (3S,4R)-3-[(cyclohexylmethyl-methyl-carbamoyloxy)-methyl]-4-({isopropyl-[4-methoxy-3-(3-methoxy-propoxy)-benzoyl]-amino}-methyl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Reaction Steps

To a stirred suspension of NaH (60% oily dispersion, 17 mg, 0.42 mmol) in THF (2 mL) is added at 0° C. (3S,4R)-3-hydroxymethyl-4-({isopropyl-[4-methoxy-3-(3-methoxy-propoxy)benzoyl]-amino}-methyl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (160 mg, 0.303 mmol) in THF (3 mL). The resulting solution is stirred 30 min before the addition of a solution of cyclohexylmethyl-methyl-carbamoyl chloride (80 mg, 0.421 mmol) in THF (3 mL). The mixture is further stirred overnight at RT and poured into an aqueous solution of NH4Cl. AcOEt is added, the layers are separated and the aqueous one extracted twice with AcOEt. The combined organic extracts are dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude material is purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (eluent: CH2Cl2/MeOH 100:0 to 95:5). TLC, Rf (CH2Cl2/MeOH 95:5)=0.25. MS (LC-MS): 648 [M+H]+; tR (HPLC, Macherey-Nagel Nucleosil C18 column, 10-100% CH3CN/H2O/5 min, 100% CH3CN/3 min, CH3CN and H2O containing 0.1% TFA, flow: 1.5 mL/min): 6.83 min.
