Procedure
To a solution of 4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylic acid (1.44 g, 8.8 mmol) in dichloromethane (DCM) (62 ml) at 0° C. was added Hunig's base (9.25 ml, 53.0 mmol) followed by 1,1-dimethylethyl (3R)-3-(cyclopentylmethyl)-4-fluoro-4-oxobutanoate (3.8 g, 8.8 mmol) in 10 mL DCM. The resulting mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 4 hours. The mixture was then cooled to 0° C. and acetic acid (2.5 ml, 44.1 mmol) was added, followed by sat. aq ammonium chloride (15 mL). The phases were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted once with DCM (20 mL). The combined organics were washed with brine (15 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated to yield a yellow oil. This crude product was purified by Combiflash automated silica gel chromatography (0-100% EtOAc in hex) to afford 1-{(2R)-2-(cyclopentylmethyl)-4-[(1,1-dimethylethyl)oxy]-4-oxobutanoyl}-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylic acid (1.78 g, 5.05 mmol, 57% yield) as a clear oil. MS: 353 ([M+H]+).
