Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.075 g (2.5 mmol) benzyl-(5-methylamino-4-o-tolyl-pyridin-2-yl)-carbamic acid benzyl ester in 10 ml dichloromethane and 1 ml N-ethyldiisopropylamine was added dropwise at 0° C. a solution of 1.15 g (3.5 mmol) 2-(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-2-methyl-propionic acid chloride in 2 ml dichloromethane and the mixture was stirred for 3 h at room temperature. The solution was washed with water (20 ml), saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (20 ml) and brine (20 ml), dried (magnesium sulfate) and evaporated. Chromatography of the residue afforded 1.15 g (62%) of the title compound as a yellow oil. MS m/e (%): 720 (M+H+, 100).
