Participants

Reaction Steps

To a slurry of Compound 1 (21.3 g, 67.4 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (40 mL) was added triethylamine (48.1 mL, 0.346 mol), formic acid (6.54 mL, 0.145 mol) and 10% palladium on carbon (0.7 g) and the resulting mixture heated to reflux. After stirring at reflux for 1 hr, the reaction was cooled to room temperature filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was chromatographed over silica gel (elution with 5% methanol/methylene chloride) to provide the desired material.
