Participants

Reaction Steps

2N Aqueous ammonia solution (10 ml) and acetone (20 ml) were added to 2-[(2S)-2-[(2-[(cis)-2,6-dimethyl-1-piperidinyl]ethylamino)carbonyl]-1-piperidinyl]-1,3-benzoxazol-6-yl acetate (0.389 g) [see Preparation 38] at 0° C. The reaction mixture was then left in a refrigerator for 18 hours, after which time the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The remaining aqueous layer was washed twice with ethyl acetate, the combined organic layers were then dried over magnesium sulphate and the solvent removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with a solvent gradient of 99:1.75:0.25 changing to 97:3.5:0.5, by volume, dichloromethane:methanol:0.88 aqueous ammonia solution to afford (2S)-N-2-[(cis)-2,6-dimethyl-1-piperidinyl]ethyl-1-(6-hydroxy-1,3-benzoxazol-2-yl)-2-piperidinecarboxamide (0.2 g) as a white foam.
