Trifluoroacetic acid → (R)-3-amino-1-[3-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-4H,6H-1,2,5,10b-tetraaza-benzo[e]azulen-5-yl]-4-(2,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl)-butan-1-one

Reaction Steps

To a solution of [3-[3-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-4H,6H-1,2,5,10b-tetraaza-benzo[e]azulen-5-yl]-3-oxo-1-(2,4,5-trifluoro-benzyl)-propyl]carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (28.0 mg, 0.047 mmol) in DCM (2 mL), was added trifluoroacetic acid (0.18 mL, 3 mL/mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 1 h. After the completion of the reaction as confirmed by TLC, excess of trifluoroacetic acid and DCM were evaporated in vacuo to afford a gummy solid which was crystallized from hexane to afford trifluoroacetic acid salt of (R)-3-amino-1-[3-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-4H,6H-1,2,5,10b-tetraaza-benzo[e]azulen-5-yl]-4-(2,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl)-butan-1-one (25 mg, 87%).
