Reaction Steps
To a solution of 2-bromoethyl 1-(3-((R)-1-((S)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxy-3,3-dimethylpiperidin-1-yl)-3-methyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)ureido)-2-methylpropan-2-yl carbonate (780 mg, 1.289 mmol) and K2CO3 (356 mg, 2.58 mmol) in DMF (3 mL) was added morpholine and the reaction was stirred at rt overnight. After drying the crude product overnight under high vacuum, the residual glass was purified via column chromatography (50% EA/hep to 100% EA to 5% MeOH/EA) to furnish 1-(3-((R)-1-((S)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxy-3,3-dimethylpiperidin-1-yl)-3-methyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)ureido)-2-methylpropan-2-yl 2-morpholinoethyl carbonate (620 mg, 1.014 mmol, 79% yield) as a foam. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz, rotameric) δ 7.40-7.24 (m, 4H), 5.44 (dd, J=21.9, 8.8 Hz, 1H), 5.13 (dt, J=21.1, 5.7 Hz, 1H), 4.82 (m, 1H), 4.65 (br d, 0.5H), 4.20 (t, J=6.2 Hz, 2H), 3.95 (m, 0.5H), 3.71 (t, J=4.8 Hz, 4H), 3.58 (m, 1H), 3.43 (m, 3H), 3.15 (dt, J=13.1, 2.6 Hz, 0.5H), 3.05 (d, J=12.7 Hz, 0.5H), 2.64 (t, J=5.7 Hz, 2H), 2.51 (t, J=4.4 Hz, 4H), 1.96 (m, 1H), 1.54 (m, 1H), 1.47-1.43 (m, 6H), 1.06 (d, J=6.6 Hz, 1.5H), 0.97-0.76 (m, 10.5H).
