Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1,1-dimethylethyl (2S,5R)-2-(aminocarbonyl)-5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-methyl-1-pyrrolidinecarboxylate (D10, 300 mg, 0.936 mmol) and potassium carbonate (194 mg, 1.4 mmol) in acetonitrile (4 ml) was added 1-(bromomethyl)-2-fluorobenzene (Sigma Aldrich Ltd.) (170 μl, 1.4 mmol) and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. After the reaction was finished, as shown by TLC, ethyl acetate and water were added. The organic phase was then washed with brine, dried, filtered and evaporated. The crude material was purified by chromatography on silica gel using cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (8:2 to 7:3) to afford the title compound (306 mg, 72%); R (HPLC): 5.88 min; Rf (cyclohexane:ethyl acetate=1:1): 0.51; 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ(ppm): 7.60-7.49 (t, 2H); 7.46-7.32 (m, 2H); 7.29-7.15 (m, 3H); 7.13-7.02 (m, 1H); 6.98-6.88 (m, 2H); 5.11 (s, 2H); 4.87-4.62 (m, 1H); 2.41-2.16 (m, 2H); 1.78-1.64 (m, 1H); 1.64-1.56 (m, 1H); 1.52 (s, 3H); 1.32 and 1.03 (s, s, 9H).
