Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of N-{4-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-3-[2-(4-methoxyphenyl)ethyl]-2-oxo-imidazolidin-1-yl}-3,3-dimethyl-N-pyridin-4-ylmethyl-butyramide (205 mg, 0.386 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (1.5 mL) is cooled in an ice bath and triethylsilane (0.129 mL, 0.81 mmol) is added, followed by trifluoroacetic acid (1.5 mL). The ice bath is removed and the reaction is stirred at ambient temperature for 2.5 hours. The reaction is concentrated to an oil, dissolved in ethyl acetate, and washed with 10% aqueous NaHCO3, and brine. The organic phase is dried (Na2SO4), treated with 2N HCl/ether (0.7 mL), and concentrated under reduced pressure. The solid which results is re-crystallized from dichloromethane/ether to afford 174 mg (76% yield) of the desired compound. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 8.92 (d, J=6.0 Hz, 2H), 8.21 (d, J=6.0 Hz, 2H), 7.14 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 7.00 (m, 4H), 6.82 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 4.38 (m, 3H), 3.74 (s, 3H), 3.72 (m, 1H), 3.44 (m, 1H), 3.14 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 2.68 (m, 1H), 2.52 (m, 1H), 2.24 (s, 3H), 2.20 (s, 3H).
