Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (60% dispersion in oil, 0.46 g, 0.0114 mol) was added portionwise at 0° C. to benzyl 4-oxo-1-phenyl-1,3,8-triazaspiro[4.5]decane-8-carboxylate (4.00 g, 0.0109 mol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (40 mL) and the mixture stirred at 0° C. for 10 minutes. tert-Butyl 4-(bromomethyl)benzoate (3.27 g, 0.0120 mol) was added dropwise at 0° C., the mixture then allowed to warm to room temperature, and stirred for 2 hours. The reaction was quenched with 2M aqueous hydrochloric acid and extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate extracts were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and evaporated. The residue was purified by Biotage flash column chromatography (gradient 0 to 30% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to give product as an oil (4.97 g, 82%); 1H NMR (DMSO-d6); δ1.53 (s, 9H); 1.72 (d, J=13.6 Hz, 2H); 2.34-2.42 (m, 2H); 3.57 (m, 2H); 3.99-4.03 (m, 2H); 4.61 (s, 2H); 4.63 (s, 2H); 6.69 (d, J=8 Hz, 2H); 6.78 (t, J=7.2 Hz, 1H); 7.18 (dd, J=7.2 Hz and 8.8 Hz, 2H); 7.32-7.39 (m, 5H); 7.42 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H); 7.90 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H);
