Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-(5-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)-3-trimethylsilyoxy-2-aza-1,3-butadiene prepared in example 36a in toluene (50 mL) was added E/Z-6-chloro-3-(3-chloro-benzylidene)-1-(2-trimethylsilanyl-ethoxymethyl)-1,3-dihydro-indole-2-one prepared in example 55a (3.0 g, 7.14 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred under nitrogen in a sealed tube at 148° C. for 40 min. After the solution was cooled to room temperature, methanol (50 mL) was added, and then the mixture was concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography (EtOAc:Hexane=2:1) to give racemic (2′R,3R,4′S)-6-chloro-4′-(3-chlorophenyl)-2′-(5-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-2,6′-dioxospiro[indole-3,3′-piperidine]-1-methoxyethyl trimethylsilane as an off-white solid (Yield 2.1 g, 49%).
