Sodium Bicarbonate → (9-(4-Chloro-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzyl)-1-oxa-4,9-diazaspiro[5.5]undecan-4-yl)(2-isopropylthiazol-4-yl)methanone

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (2-isopropylthiazol-4-yl)(1-oxa-4,9-diazaspiro[5.5]undecan-4-yl)methanone trifluoroacetate (example 22, step b) (0.178 g) in NMP (2 mL) was treated with acetic acid (0.032 mL) and stirred for 5 minutes. A solution of 4-chloro-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzaldehyde (example 75, step c) (0.154 g) in NMP (3 mL) was then added, the resulting solution was stirred for 1 hour and was then treated with sodium triacetoxyborohydride (0.181 g) and stirred overnight at room temperature. More sodium triacetoxyborohydride (0.404 g) was added and the mixture was stirred for an additional 6 hours, then poured into saturated sodium bicarbonate and extracted twice with ethyl acetate. The combined extracts were washed three times with water, once with brine, then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate and purified by flash chromatography on silica eluted with 1:2:97 triethylamine:methanol:dichloromethane to afford the subtitled compound as a colourless gum. Yield 0.157 g.
