Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of compounds 11-3 (119 mg, 0.5 mmol) in DMF (2 mL) was added morpholine (66 uL, 0.75 mmol), triethylamine (0.24 mL, 1.75 mmol) and BOP (265 mg, 0.6 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solution was diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc. Combined organic layers were washed with 1N HCl, water, brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude material was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate:hexanes: 25:75 to 100%) gave pure 11-4 (140 mg, 91%) as a white foam.
