(S)-tert-butyl 3-(3-iodophenyl)-1-((4-methoxyphenyl)(methyl)amino)-1-oxopropan-2-ylcarbamate → (5)-Tert-butyl 3-(3-(but-3-enyl)phenyl)-1-((4-methoxyphenyl)(methyl)amino)-1-oxopropan-2-ylcarbamate

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (5)-tert-butyl 3-(3-iodophenyl)-1-((4-methoxyphenyl)(methyl)amino)-1-oxopropan-2-ylcarbamate (510 mg, 1.0 mmol), Pd(dppf)Cl2 (10 mol %) in THF (5 ml) was added but-3-enylmagnesium bromide (8 ml, 4 mmol, 0.5 M in THF). The solution was then heated at reflux overnight. The solution was cooled down and quenched with ammonia chloride (aq) and filtered through celite. The filtrate was extracted with EtOAc (2×25 ml). The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was introduced to a silica gel loading column and purified by column chromatography (20-40% EtOAc/hexanes) to provide the desired product (270 mg, 0.62 mmol), 62%. MS (m/z) 439 [M+H]+. Intermediate I-1A was used in the synthesis of Example 4.
