Reaction Steps

A nitrogen purged 500 mL three-neck flask is charged with 4-fluoro-α-(2-methyl-1-oxopropyl)- γ-oxo-N,β-diphenylbenzenebutanamide (Baumann, supra) (13.6 g, 0.032 mol), (4R-cis)-6-(2-aminoethyl)-2,2-dimethyl-N,N-diphenyl-1,3-dioxane-4-acetamide (10.0 g, 0.027 mol), heptane (100 mL), pivalic acid (3 g), tetrahydrofuran (50 mL), and toluene (60 mL). The mixture is heated to reflux for 48 hours, cooled to room temperature, and diluted with toluene (300 mL). The solution is washed with 0.5N aqueous sodium hydroxide (150 mL), followed by 0.5N aqueous hydrochloric acid (250 mL), and concentratedby vacuum distillation to a foam. The product, (4R-cis)-1-[2-[6-[2-(diphenylamino)-2-oxoethyl]-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan-4-yl]ethyl]-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(1-methylethyl)-N,4-diphenyl- 1H-pyrrole-3-carboxamide, is used in the next step without further purification.
