Reaction Steps

A suspension of (E)-tert-butyl 3-(5-methyl-4-oxo-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydropyrido[2,3-b][1,5]diazocin-8-yl)acrylate (391 mg, 1.23 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) was treated with TFA (10 mL). After stirring at room temperature for 2 h, the solution was concentrated in vacuo. The resulting oil was treated with anhydrous HCl in dioxane (4 mL, 4.0 M) and sonicated until the oil was converted to a fine off-white solid. After stirring for 20 min, the suspension was concentrated. The solid was washed with Et2O, isolated by filtration and dried under vacuum. Yield: 388 mg (quant); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.17 (s, 1H), 8.04 (s, 1H), 7.48 (d, J=16.0 Hz, 1H), 6.48 (d, J=16.0 Hz, 1H), 4.78 (bs, 1H), 3.90 (s, 2H), 2.99 (s, 2H), 2.79 (s, 2H), 2.58 (s, 3H); ESI MS m/z 298 [C13H15N3O3+H]+
