Reaction Steps

A mixture of Intermediate tert-butyl (2R)-2-[5-(2-{(2S)-1-[N-(methoxycarbonyl)-L-valyl]pyrrolidin-2-yl}-3,7-dihydroisochromeno[3′,4′:5,6]naphtho[1,2-d]imidazol-9-yl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (390 mg, 0.53 mmol), concentrated HCl (2 mL) and ethanol (10 mL) was heated to 60° C. for 2 hours. The reaction was concentrated and redissolved in a minimal amount of methanol. An equal volume of dichloromethane was added and the solution was again concentrated. Dichloromethane was added to the resulting residue and concentrated off two more times. One half of the crude material (˜0.27 mmol) was dissolved in dimethylformamide (2.5 mL). To this solution was added (S)-2-(methoxycarbonylamino)-3-methylbutanoic acid (66 mg, 0.38 mmol), HATU (140 mg, 0.37 mmol) and diisopropylethylamine (0.48 mL, 2.7 mmol). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours, and then diluted with acetonitrile (2 mL) and methanol (2 mL). To this solution was added ten drops of 5M aqueous NaOH solution and stirring was continued for 30 minutes. The reaction was diluted with ethyl acetate and the organic layer was washed with water and brine. The combined aqueous washings were extracted three times with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The crude material was purified by reverse phase HPLC (Gemini, 15 to 45% ACN/H2O+0.1% TFA) to yield methyl {(2S)-1-[(2R)-2-(5-{2-[(2S)-1-{(2S)-2-[(methoxycarbonyl)amino]-3-methylbutanoyl}pyrrolidin-2-yl]-3,7-dihydroisochromeno[3′,4′:5,6]naphtho[1,2-d]imidazol-9-yl}-1H-imidazol-2-yl)pyrrolidin-1-yl]-3-methyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl}carbamate (140 mg, 67% yield over 2 steps). LCMS-ESI+: calculated for C43H50N8O7: 790.91; observed [M+1]+: 791.71.
