(2S,4R)-methyl 4-(allylthio)-4-(biphenyl-4-yl)-1-((S)-2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)dec-9-enoyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylate → (3S,14R,16S,E)-methyl 14-(biphenyl-4-yl)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-oxo-13-thia-1-azabicyclo[12.2.1]heptadec-10-ene-16-carboxylate

Reaction Steps

A solution of (2S,4R)-methyl 4-(allylthio)-4-(biphenyl-4-yl)-1-((S)-2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)dec-9-enoyl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylate (108 mg, 0.174 mmol) in Dichloromethane (50 mL) was purged with nitrogen for 30 min. And then Hoveyda-Grubbs Catalyst 2nd Generation (131 mg, 0.209 mmol) was added. The resulting green solution was heated to reflux for 5 h. The reaction was quenched with 2-Mercaptonicotinic acid (54.0 mg, 0.348 mmol) and washed with sat. Na2CO3, and brine. Dried over MgSO4, filtered, concentrated in vacuo. The brown residue was purified by Biotage column, eluted with gradient 5%˜40% EtOAc-Hexane to afford the desired product (3S,14R,16S,E)-methyl 14-(biphenyl-4-yl)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-2-oxo-13-thia-1-azabicyclo[12.2.1]heptadec-10-ene-16-carboxylate (86 mg, 0.131 mmol, 75% yield) as an off-white solid.
