Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-bromophthalide (70.5 g; 0.33 mol) in dimethylformamide (65 ml) was added dropwise to a cold solution of trans-4-(tert.-butyloxycarbonylaminomethyl) cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (77.1 g; 0.3 mol) in triethylamine (36.4 g; 0.36 mol) and dimethylformamide (195 ml). After 18 h the solvent was evaporated, water (1.5 L) and ethyl acetate (1.5 L) were added. The ethyl acetate extract was washed, dried and evaporated to give 122 g. This was dissolved in ethyl acetate (400 ml) and ethyl acetate/hydrochloric acid was added at ice bath temperature. After 2 h at room temperature, the precipitate was filtered, washed and dried to yield 63.8 g. This substance was dissolved in methanol, filtered through charcoal and precipitated with diethyl ether. Yield 54.4 g (56%), m.p. 212° C.
