Reaction Steps

To a solution of rac-6-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-nicotinic acid methyl ester prepared in Example 138 (0.2 g, 0.33 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (3 mL) was added an aqueous solution (1 N) of NaOH (1 mL, 1 mmol) and methanol (1 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 h, and the “pH” of the solution was adjusted to 5-6 by aqueous HCl solution. The mixture was extracted ethyl acetate twice. The combined organic extracts were washed with water, brine, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated to give rac-6-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-nicotinic acid as a white foam (0.12 g). In a manner similar to the method described in Examples 1e, rac-6-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-nicotinic acid (0.12 g, 0.2 mmol) was reacted with 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (Aldrich) (0.1 g, 1.1 mmol), HATU (0.2 g, 0.5 mmol) and iPr2NEt (0.3 g, 2.3 mmol) in CH2Cl2 at room temperature for 20 h to give rac-6-{[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-N-(2-hydroxy-1,1-dimethyl-ethyl)-nicotinamide as a white solid (30 mg, 22%).
