Reaction Steps

A mixture of chiral-(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-carboxylic acid (228 mg, 0.488 mmol), methyl 2-(4-aminophenyl)acetate (200 mg, 1.21 mmol), 2-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-n,n,n′,n′-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU, 241 mg, 0.634 mmol) and iPr2NEt (0.4 mL, 2.29 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) was stirred at rt overnight. The mixture was then diluted with CH2Cl2 and washed with water, brine. The organic phase was separated, then concentrated and purified by column chromatography (1-100% of EtOAc/heptane, 12 g Analogix column) to afford chiral (4-{[(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}-phenyl)-acetic acid methyl ester (209 mg, 69.7%) as an white powder. LCMS (ES+) m/z Calcd for C32H31Cl2F2N3O3+H [M+H)+]: 613.17. found: 614.2.
