Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl (2S)-2-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-6-oxopiperidine-1-carboxylate from Step C (1.53 g, 4.91 mmol) and iodoethane (0.993 mL, 12.3 mmol) in THF (15 mL) at −78° C. was added a 1 M solution of sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide in THF (10.8 mL, 10.8 mmol) dropwise over 15 min. The resulting mixture was stirred at −78° C. for 10 min and at 0° C. for 2 h, then quenched with saturated aqueous NH4Cl (50 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with a gradient of hexane:EtOAc—100:0 to 50:50, to give the title compound. MS: m/z=312 (M−C4H7).
