Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of rac (2R,3R,4R,5S)-4-(4-Chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-3-(3-chloro-2-methyl-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid [3-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-phenyl]-amide (44 mg, 0.172 mmol) in acetone (5 mL), sodium bicarbonate (84 mg, 1 mmol) and dimethyl sulfate (30 uL, 0.22 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at rt for 5 hrs. The solvent was removed and the residue was suspended in 3 mL of methylene chloride. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was loaded on a silica gel column. Eluting with 35-70% EtOAc/Hexanes on an ISCO machine gave the desired product (26 mg) and the other regioisomer (12 mg).
