Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-[2-(trifluoromethyl)-4′-methoxybenzhydryloxy]azetidine (157) (100 mg, 0.30 mmol) in anhydrous DCM (4 mL) was added MP-carbonate (3.01 mmol/g; 100 mg, 0.30 mmol) and 1-adamantyl isocyanate (55 mg, 0.30 mmol). The resultant mixture was shaken at ambient temperature for 5 h, after which time it was poured onto a DCM-wetted SCX-2 (1 g) cartridge. Elution with DCM (6 mL) followed by DCM-MeOH (6 mL), then removal of solvent in vacuo afforded the desired product as a white foam (140 mg, 92%).
