(5S)-N-[[3-[3-Fluoro-4-[1-(phenylmethyl)-3-pyrrolidinyl]phenyl]-2-oxo-5-oxazolidinyl]methyl]acetamide → (5S)-N-[[3-(3-Fluoro-4-(3-pyrrolidinyl)phenyl]-2-oxo-5-oxazolidinyl]methyl]acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (5S)-N-[[3-[3-fluoro-4-[1-(phenylmethyl)-3-pyrrolidinyl]phenyl]-2-oxo-5-oxazolidinyl]methyl]acetamide (EXAMPLE 41, 1.09 g) and 20% palladium hydroxide on carbon (545 mg) in methanol (30 mL) is shaken on the Parr apparatus under a hydrogen atmosphere at 40 psi for 1.5 hours and at 10 psi for 18 hours. The catalyst is then removed by filtration through Celite, and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound, NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) 7.39, 7.24, 7.11, 6.35, 4.78, 4.04, 3.77, 3.67, 3.44, 3.37, 3.18, 3.11, 2.88, 2.21 2.02, 1.86 δ.
