Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-tert-butyl 3-methyl 4-(3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl)piperazine-1,3-dicarboxylate (Example 100A, 180 g, 0.545 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (1.3 L) was added potassium t-butoxide (98 g, 0.872 mol) with stirring at 0-5° C. under N2 atmosphere portion-wise over a period of 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. The reaction was then quenched with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution (500 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (1 L). The organic layer was separated, washed with brine (500 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to afford the title compound. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 1.48 (s, 9H), 2.28-2.35 (m, 2H), 2.65-2.83 (m, 1H), 2.83-3.12 (m, 3H), 3.43 (t, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 3.61 (t, 1H, J=8.4 Hz), 3.78 (s, 3H), 3.98-4.20 (bs, 1H), 4.20-4.45 (bs, 1H).
