Methyl iodide → HCID 59468940, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1,1-dimethylethyl (2R,5R)-2-(3-{[(2-fluorophenyl)methyl]oxy}phenyl)-6-oxo-1,7-diazaspiro[4.4]nonane-1-carboxylate (D46, 60 mg, 0.14 mmol) in DMF (1 mL) cooled at 0° C., was added NaH (8 mg of a 60% dispersion in mineral oil, 0.20 mmol) in one portion. The ice-bath was removed and the reaction mixture left under stirring for 15 min. Methyl iodide (25 μL, 0.41 mmol) was added to the mixture and after 1 h the reaction was quenched with water. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate, dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. The crude material was purified by chromatography on silica gel using cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (7:3) affording the title compound (70 mg, quant.); Rt (HPLC): 6.03 min; MS: (ES/+) m/z: 477 [M+Na+]; C26H31FN2O4 requires 454.
