Participants

Reaction Steps

(3R)-3-Amino-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-5-carboxylic acid methyl ester hydrochloride (A-01) (1.098 mmol, 1 eq) was dissolved in dichloromethane, and DIPEA (2.5 eq) and naphthalene-1-carboxylic acid chloride (1.0 eq) were added under a protecting gas atmosphere at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1.5 h at RT. Then the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed 1× with 10% ammonium chloride solution and 1× with sat. NaCl solution, dried over magnesium sulfate and purified by column chromatography (silica gel, cyclohexane:ethyl acetate 3:1). Yield: 58%
