Reaction Steps

A solution of 2(R)-(3-chloro-4-methanesulfonyl-phenyl)-3-cyclopentyl-propionic acid (prepared as in Example 19, 200 mg, 0.61 mmol) in methylene chloride (4 mL) was treated with N,N-dimethylformamide (1 drop) and then cooled to 0° C. The reaction mixture was then treated dropwise with a 2M solution of oxalyl chloride in methylene chloride (0.45 mL, 0.91 mmol) and stirred at 0° C. for 30 min. The reaction mixture was then treated with a solution of 2-aminoquinoline (131 mg, 0.91 mmol) and pyridine (0.25 mL, 3.03 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL). The resulting reaction mixture was allowed to warm to 25° C. where it was stirred for 16 h. The reaction mixture was then diluted with water (10 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×15 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Biotage chromatography (FLASH 40S, Silica, 70/30 hexanes/ethyl acetate) afforded 2(R)-(3-chloro-4-methanesulfonyl-phenyl)-3-cyclopentyl-N-quinolin-2-yl-propionamide (93 mg, 34%) as an off-white foam: EI-HRMS m/e calcd for C24H25ClN2O3S (M+) 456.1274, found 456.1268.
