Reaction Steps

20 g (53.45 mmol) of methyl (2Z)-3-(5-bromo-2-fluorophenyl)-2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]acrylate (Example 4O) are dissolved in 300 ml of ethanol/dioxane (3:1). Under an argon atmosphere, 200 mg of (+)-1,2-bis((2S,5S)-2,5-diethylphospolano)benzene(cyclooctadiene)rhodium(I)trifluoromethanesulfonate are added, and argon is passed through the solution for 30 min. The mixture is then hydrogenated under a pressure of 3.5 bar of hydrogen for 3 days. The solvent is removed on a rotary evaporator, and the crude product is purified by column chromatography on silica gel (mobile phase: cyclohexane:ethyl acetate 2:2).
