Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of rac 4-({[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-4-(4-Chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-methyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid methyl ester (54.3 mg, 0.0875 mmol, example XC-1) in THF (5 mL) was added a solution of LiOH (27.8 mg, 0.662 mmol, Aldrich) in water (2.5 mL) and the reaction mixture was stirred at rt for 22 hrs. The reaction mixture was partly concentrated and quenched with 1 N HCl (pH 6), extracted with EtOAc, and washed with water, saturated NaCl. The organic phase was separated, and dried over Na2SO4. The mixture was then concentrated to give rac-4-({[(2R,3S,4R,5S)-4-(4-Chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-3-(3-chloro-2-fluoro-phenyl)-4-cyano-5-(2,2-dimethyl-propyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-methyl)-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (52.1 mg, 98%). HRMS (ES+) m/z Calcd C31H35Cl2F2N3O3+H [(M+H): 606.2097. Found: 606.2097.
