Reaction Steps

Crude 1-(5-((R)-4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazin-1-ylsulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid (570 mg, 1.094 mmol) charged to a reaction flask was dissolved in THF (23 mL). To it was added CDI (649 mg, 4.38 mmol) and the reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 1 hour. After cooling down to room temperature excess NH4OH (28% NH3)(23 ml) was added dropwise via addition funnel. The reaction mixture was left to stir at room temperature for 10 minutes, then it was diluted with ethyl acetate, acidified (pH acidic) using 10% HCl (aqueous) and stirred for 5 minutes. The layers were separated, and the organic layer washed with saturated brine, dried over MgSO4, concentrated. Crude product containing a significant amount of starting acid by TLC was subjected to the same reaction and work up conditions. After reaction completation crude was purified via flash column chromatography to yield 1-(5-((R)-4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazin-1-ylsulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide as white solid (180 mg, 31% yield). HRMS: calcd for C21H24F4N4O3S2+H+, 521.12987. found (ESI-FTMS, [M+H]1+), 521.13026.
