Participants

Reaction Steps

To tert-butyl 4,5-dihydro-5-[(pyrrolidino)carbonyl]imidazo[1,5-a]quinoxaline-3-carboxylate (I, EXAMPLE 217, 2.97 g) are added 20 ml of a solution of trifluoroacetic acid and dichloromethane (1/1). After stirring for 3.5 hr an additional 2 ml of the trifluoroacetic acid/dichloromethane solution are added, followed an hour later by another 2 ml and 30 min later with a final 2 ml of the trifluoroacetic acid/dichloromethane solution. The reaction is stirred additional hours and then concentrated under reduced pressure. Dichloromethane is added to the residue and the mixture is again concentrated to give the title compound, which is crystallized from methanol/dichloromethane, mp 197°-200°; MS (m/z) at 312; NMR (DMSO-d6) 1.72, 3.15, 4.86, 7.18-7.22, 7.33, 7.90, 8.70 δ.
