Methyl iodide → HCID 18727283, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Anhydrous potassium carbonate (152 mg, 1.1 mmol) and iodomethane (0.034 ml, 0.5 mmol) were added to a solution of tert-butyl 2-(R)-{[4-(4-chlorobenzoyl)piperidine-1-sulfonyl]amino}-3-methylbutyrate (100 mg, 0.22 mmol) in DMF (1.5 ml) at RT. After 3 h, the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (30 ml) and then washed with 0.1M HCl and brine, and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was chromatographed (PTLC, SiO2, 25% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give tert-butyl 2-(R)-{methyl-[4-(4-chlorobenzoyl)piperidine-1-sulfonyl]amino}-3-methylbutyrate as a colorless oil (63%).
