Reaction Steps

Compound 1 (150 mg, 0.32 mmol) was dissolved in DCM and TFA (0.25 mL, 3.20 mmol) was added. The resulting mixture was stirred overnight. The mixture was concentrated, diluted with DCM and washed with saturated NaHCO3 solution. The filtrate was dried anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by normal phase chromatography, eluting with 0-30% 1M methanolic ammonia/dichloro-methane to give desired product, Compound 2 as a white solid (0.10 g, 85%). MS: m/z 370.2 [M+H]+. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ: 1.05 (s, 9H), 2.76 (s, 3H), 3.16 (m, 2H), 4.11 (m, 2H), 4.37 (m, 3H), 7.53 (m, 3H), 7.71 (m, 2H).
