Reaction Steps

(R)-7-[3-tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-4-(2,4,5-trifluoro-phenyl)-butyryl]-3-trifluoromethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazine-1-carboxylic acid 2a (150 mg, 0.27 mmol), aminoacetonitrile sulfate (85 mg, 0.41 mmol), bis(2-oxo-3-oxazolidinyl) phosphonic chloride (0.206 g, 0.81 mmol) and triethylamine (0.37 mL, 2.7 mmol) were dissolved in 10 mL of dichloromethane under stirring. The reaction mixture was reacted at room temperature overnight and monitored by thin layer chromatography until the disappearance of the starting materials. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to obtain the title compound (R)-[3-[1-(cyanomethyl-carbamoyl)-3-trifluoromethyl-5,6-dihydro-8H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrazin-7-yl]-3-oxo-1-(2,4,5-trifluoro-benzyl)-propyl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester 4a (150 mg, yield 94.4%) as a white solid.
