2-Chloro-5-methylaniline → tert-Butyl 4-(2-chloro-5-methylphenylcarbamoyl)-3-[4-cyclopropyl-5-(3-isobutylcyclobutyl)isoxazol-3-yl]butanoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Mono-tert-butyl 3-[4-cyclopropyl-5-(3-isobutylcyclobutyl)isoxazol-3-yl]glutarate (2.83 g) and DMF (28 mL) were mixed. After an addition of 2-chloro-5-methylphenylamine (1.184 g), HOBt.H2O (1.28 g) and WSC.HCl (1.60 g) to the resultant solution, the mixture was stirred at RT for 2 days. To the reaction mixture was added saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate, water and brine, then dried over sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (Eluent: ethyl acetate/hexane=1/15→1/10→1/8) to give the title compound (1.241 g).
