Reaction Steps

6-(trifluoroacetamido)hexanoyl chloride (Clark et al., Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 1 2001:3312-3324) (0.984 g, 4.52 mmol) was added to a solution of 2 (0.75 g, 3.62 mmol) and pyridine (0.859 g, 10.86 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (approximately 10 ml) at room temperature, and stirred for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2 (approximately 20 mL), washed with water (2×30 mL), dried over anhydrous MgSO4 and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography (hexanes:ethyl acetate 2:3) to provide 1.064 g (2.56 mmol, 71%) of 3 as yellowish oil. 1H: δ 7.32-7.22 (m, 4H), 7.19-7.11 (m, 4H), 6.77 (d, J=13.2 Hz, 1H), 6.58 (d, J=13.2 Hz, 1H), 5.46 (d, J=14.8 Hz, 1H), 4.20 (d, J=14.8 Hz, 1H), 3.29-3.15 (m, 2H), 2.09-2.02 (m, 1H), 1.93-1.85 (m, 1H), 1.51-1.32 (m, 4H), 1.25-1.04 (m, 2H); 13C: 172.7, 157.5, 141.1, 136.1, 135.8, 134.8, 132.4, 131.8, 130.5, 128.5, 128.2, 128.1, 128.0, 127.3, 127.2, 117.5, 114.6, 54.8, 39.6, 34.3, 28.2, 25.9, 24.3; FIRMS (ESI+) m/z calcd for C23H24F3N2O2 [M+H]+ 417.1790. found 417.1783.
