反応手順

Trifluoroacetic acid (116 μL, 1.51 mmol) was added to a solution of N-tert-butyl-N-(methoxymethyl)-N-(trimethylsilylmethyl)amine from Step B (3.07 g, 15.1 mmol) and methyl (2E)-3-(2,4-difluorophenyl)prop-2-enoate (2.99 g, 15.1 mmol) in methylene chloride (60 mL) at ambient temperature. After 18 h, the reaction mixture was poured into saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and extracted three times with methlene chloride. The combined organic extracs were washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the residue by normal phase medium pressure liquid chromatography on silica gel (gradient elution; 0-9% methanol (containing 10% v/v ammonium hydroxide)/methylene chloride as eluent) gave the racemic title compound as a colorless liquid. The racemic titled compound was resolved into its enantiomeric components using preparative chiral high pressure liquid chromatography on CHIRALPAK AD Phase (5% isopropanol/heptanes as eluent) to give in order of elution: methyl (3S,4R)-1-tert-butyl-4-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylate enantiomer of the titled compound as a colorless oil followed by the methyl (3R,4S)-1-tert-butyl-4-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyrrolidine-3-carboxylate enantiomer of the title compound as a colorless oil.
