Sodium hydride → methyl 2-[(3S)-1-Cbz-3-pyrolidinyl(cyclohexyl)amino]acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

NaH (60% in mineral oil, 52.0 mg, 1.30 mmol) was placed in a round-bottom flask, filled with nitrogen, and then THF (10 mL) was added. A solution of (3S)-1-Cbz-3-(cyclohexylamino)pyrrolidine (302 mg, 1.00 mmol) prepared in Intermediate 2 in THF was added dropwise at 0° C., and the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 min until no further gas evolution occurred, followed by slow addition of methyl bromoacetate. After 4 h, the reaction, mixture was quenched with water and extracted with EtOAc. The extracts were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was purified by column chomatography (EtOAc/Hex=1/2) to give the title compound (227 mg, 90.0%).
