Triethylamine → 4,4-Difluorocyclohexanecarboxylic acid

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 21.1 mg (0.072 mmol) of 1-methyl-3-(tetrahydropyran-4-ylmethyl)-bicyclo[3.2.1]-1β,3,8-triaza-spiro[4.5]dodecan-2-one in 1.5 mL of DCE was added 21.2 mg (0.072 mmol, 1 eq.) of 4,4-difluoro-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid ((S)-3-oxo-1-phenyl-propyl)-amide, 19 mg (0.09 mmol, 1.25 eq.) of sodium triacetoxyborohydride and 12 μL (0.086 mmol, 1.2 eq.) of triethylamine. The reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The crude was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (DCM/MeOH: 0 to 100) and redissolved in 1 mL of methanol and 100 μL of HCl (1N). The solution was then concentrated in vacuo and diluted with 2 mL of water to give after lyophilization 17.5 mg (40%) of 4,4-difluoro-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid {(S)-3-[1-methyl-3-(tetrahydropyran-4-ylmethyl)-bicyclo[3.2.1]-2-oxo-1β,3,8-triaza-spiro[4.5]dodec-8-yl]-1-phenyl-propyl}-amide hydrochloride.
