Reaction Steps

3-[(2S,4S)-1-tert-Butoxycarbonyl-4-(5-cyano-2-pyridyl)amino-2-pyrrolidinylcarbonyl]-1,3-thiazolidine [product of Example 58(1)] (305 mg) was dissolved in DMF (10 mL), and potassium tert-butoxide (93 mg) was added under ice cooling. After stirring the mixture for 10 min, benzyl bromide (94 μl) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 days. 10% citric acid solution was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed successively with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and brine, and dried. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by silica gel chromatography to give 3-{(2S,4S)-4-[N-benzyl-N-(5-cyano-2-pyridyl)amino]-1-tert-butoxycarbonyl-2-pyrrolidinylcarbonyl}-1,3-thiazolidine (202 mg) as a pale-yellow solid.
