Cesium carbonate → tert-Butyl (1S,2R)-1-(3,5-difluorobenzyl)-2-hydroxy-3-[(6-isopropoxy-1,1-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-isochromen-4-yl)amino]propylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-bromo-6-isopropoxy-1,1-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-1H-isochromene (0.61 g, 2.04 mmol), cesium carbonate (1.33 g, 4.08 mmol), and tert-butyl (1S,2R)-3-amino-1-(3,5-difluorobenzyl)-2-hydroxypropylcarbamate (0.64 g, 2.04 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 mL) was stirred at 60° C., under nitrogen, for 24 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 mL) and washed with 5% lithium chloride (3×40 mL), water (2×30 mL), saturated sodium chloride (30 mL), dried (sodium sulfate), and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography (silica, 95:5 methylene chloride/methanol) to afford the desired product (0.51 g, 47%) as a pale-yellow foam: ESI MS m/z 535 [C29H40F2N2O5+H]+.
