Reaction Steps

A 10-mL microwave vial was charged with ((2R)-4-(2-thiophenylsulfonyl)-1-(4-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)phenyl)-2-piperazinyl)methyl methanesulfonate (0.140 g, 0.265 mmol, Intermediate B), 2-oxa-6-azaspiro[3.3]heptane (0.026 g, 0.265 mmol. ASW MedChem, Inc. New Brunswick, N.J.), potassium carbonate (0.040 g, 0.291 mmol), and 3 mL of MeCN. The tube was sealed and heated in a microwave (Emrys Optimizer Automated Microwave Synthesizer, Uppsala, Sweden) at 100° C. for 1 h. The mixture was diluted with 5 mL of CH2Cl2, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated. The resulting oil was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (20-100% EtOAc in hexanes) to give 1,1,1-trifluoro-2-(4-((2S)-2-(2-oxa-6-azaspiro[3.3]hept-6-ylmethyl)-4-(2-thiophenylsulfonyl)-1-piperazinyl)phenyl)-2-propanol (0.045 g) as a mixture of two isomers:
