Water → tert-Butyl {(3R)-1-[5-(2-chloro-5-fluorobenzyl)-2,7-dicyano-3-methyl-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidin-6-yl]piperidin-3-yl}carbamate

Reaction Steps

An aqueous solution (2 ml) of sodium cyanide (338 mg) was added to a solution of tert-butyl {(3R)-1-[5-(2-chloro-5-fluorobenzyl)-7-cyano-3-methyl-2-(methylsulfonyl)-4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidin-6-yl]piperidin-3-yl}carbamate (890 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (10 ml), and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. Water was added to the reaction solution, followed by extraction with ethyl acetate (200 ml). The organic layer was washed with a 10% aqueous potassium carbonate solution and a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over sodium sulfate and then filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by a silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=2/1) to obtain the title compound (758 mg).
