Triethylamine → 2-(R)-[2-(R)-(Benzhydrylidene-amino)-1-(S)-hydroxy-3-phenylpropyl]-4-(5-methyl-hexanoyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

Dissolve (2-(R)-[2-(R)-(benzhydrylidene-amino)-1-(S)-hydroxy-3-phenylpropyl]-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (110 mg, 0.22 mmol) in 2.2 ml of dichloromethane and react with 5-methylhexanoic acid (28.6 mg, 0.22 mmol), EDCI (50.6 mg, 0.26 mmol), HOBT (35.6 mg, 0.26 mmol), triethylamine (0.09 ml, 0.66 mmol) and dimethylaminopyridine (2.6 mg, 0.02 mmol). Stir at room temperature overnight. Dilute with CH2Cl2, and wash with 5%NaHCO3 and saturated aqueous sodium chloride. Dry organic layers with MgSO4 and remove the solvent under reduced pressure. Subject residue to silica gel chromatography, eluting with hexanes/ethyl acetate/triethylamine 67:32:1 to obtain 103 mg (76% yield) of the desired product.
