Reaction Steps

A stirring solution of (S)-tert-butyl 2-amino-3-(4-(5-(4-(heptyloxy)phenyl)pyrimidin-2-yl)phenyl)propanoate INT-9 (5.50 g, 11.23 mmol) and 5-(tert-butyl)thiophene-2-carboxylic acid (2.13 g, 11.57 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) and DIEA (6.22 ml, 33.70 mmol) was treated portion wise with HATU (4.48 g, 11.79 mmol). After stirring for 1 h, the mixture was treated with water (200 mL) and iso-hexanes (20 mL) and stirred for 10 min. The product was collected by filtration, washed with iso-hexanes (2×30 mL), water (2×50 mL) then MeOH (20 mL) and iso-hexanes (30 mL). The ester was taken up in DCM (50 mL) and treated with TFA (10 mL). After 1 h, additional TFA (15 mL) was added. After a further 5 h, the mixture was treated with toluene (20 mL) and concentrated. The residue was washed with acetonitrile (25 mL) then taken up in DMSO (20 mL) then treated with water (100 mL) and stirred for 1 h. The product was collected by filtration, washed with water (4×50 mL) then acetonitrile (3×30 mL), and dried in a vacuum oven to give 5.30 g (75%) of (S)-2-(5-(tert-butyl)thiophene-2-carboxamido)-3-(4-(5-(4-(heptyloxy)phenyl)pyrimidin-2-yl)phenyl)propanoic acid, Compound 192 as an off-white solid. LCMS-ESI (m/z) calculated for C35H41N3O4S: 599.3; no m/z observed, tR=11.10 min (Method 10). The chiral purity was 98% e.e.
