Tert-butyl 9-benzyl-7-oxo-3,9-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-3-carboxylate → 3-Boc-7-oxo-3,9-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane

Participants

Reaction Steps

9-Benzyl-7-oxo-3,9-diaza-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (16.6 g, 50.5 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (40 mL) and added to a suspension of palladium hydroxide (1 g) in methanol (10 mL) in a Parr bottle. The Parr bottle was filled with hydrogen (40 psi) and evacuated three times. The Parr bottle was refilled with hydrogen (40 psi) and shook for 48 h. The suspension was filtered through Celite and concentrated under vacuum to give 12.1 g (quantitative yield) of 7-oxo-3,9-diaza-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as a yellow oil. Retention time (min)=0.531, method [1], MS(ESI) 481.3 (2M+H).
