Reaction Steps
A solution of 2,5-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidin-2-yl-hexanoic acid ethyl ester (266 mg, 1.1 mmol), (7-methanesulfonylamino-1,1-dioxo-1,4-dihydro-1λ6-benzo[1,2,4]thiadiazin-3-yl)-acetic acid (367 mg, 1.1 mmol), and 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (274 mg, 1.43 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (8 mL) was treated with N-methylmorpholine (289 mg, 2.86 mmol) and stirred for 1 h. The reaction was quenched with 1.0 M aqueous hydrochloric acid solution, extracted with ethyl acetate, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude oil was dissolved in ethanol, treated with a 60% oil dispersion of sodium hydride (176 mg, 7.33 mmol) and heated to a vigorous reflux for 48 h. Upon cooling to 25° C., the reaction mixture was over ice in a 1.0 M aqueous hydrochloride solution. The resulting precipitate was collected by vacuum filtration to afford the crude product as a tan solid. The crude residue was purified by prep-HPLC to afford two separate diastereomers of the desired product, N-{3-[7-hydroxy-8-methyl-8-(3-methyl-butyl)-5-oxo-1,2,3,5,8,8a-hexahydro-indolizin-6-yl]-1,1-dioxo-1,4-dihydro-1λ6-benzo[1,2,4]thiadiazin-7-yl}-methanesulfonamide, as tan solids. Assignment of the relative or absolute configuration of the stereocenters was not attempted.
