Triethylamine → 8-((2S)-2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-4-(methylthio)butanamido)-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane

Participants

Reaction Steps

1,4-Dioxaspiro[4.5]decan-8-amine (5.03 g, 32.0 mmol, 1 eq.), CBZ-L-methionine (10.90, 38.4 mmol, 1.2 eq.), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate (HOBT) (5.19 g, 38.4 mmol, 1.2 eq.), 1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-3-ethylcarbodiimide HCl (EDCI) (7.36 g, 38.4 mmol, 1.2 eq.), triethylamine (8.92 mL, 64.0 mmol, 2 eq.) and methylene chloride (150 mL) were stirred at room temperature under nitrogen for 72 hours. Worked up by rinsing 3 times with saturated sodium bicarbonate (50 mL). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and stripped to give an amber oil which solidified. The solids were triturated with diethyl ether (100 mL) and stirred overnight. The solids were filtered to give 8-((2S)-2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-4-(methylthio)butanamido)-1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane (8.75 g) as a white solid. Yield=64%. Mass Spec (ESI) detects (M+H)+=423.22.
