Reaction Steps

1,1-dimethylethyl {(1R)-1-[({2-[(3,3,7-trimethyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-4-yl)oxy]-5-pyrimidinyl}amino)carbonyl]propyl}carbamate (Intermediate 34, 213 mg, 0.47 mmol) was dissolved in HCl 5-6 N in isopropanol (1 mL) and the resulting solution was heated to 35° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under vacuum, the residue diluted with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and an aqueous 5% solution of K2CO3 (30 mL). Two phases were separated and the organic layer was washed with an aqueous saturated solution of ammonium chloride (30 mL), dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under vacuum. The resulting crude was dissolved in ethyl acetate (10 mL) and triethylamine was added (0.23 mL, 1.64 mmol). The reaction mixture was cooled to 0-5° C. and a solution of triphosgene (55 mg, 0.185 mmol) in ethyl acetate (5 mL) was added drop wise in 10 minutes. The reaction was quenched with water (50 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (50 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified purified by flash chromatography on silica gel using cyclohexane/ethyl acetate 50:50 as eluent affording the title compound (161 mg) as a white solid.
