Reaction Steps

To a 1.6 M solution of n-BuLi in hexane (0.29 mL, 0.46 mmol) cooled to −78° C. was added a solution of benzo[d]thiazole (56 mg, 0.42 mmol) in THF (1 mL). The crude was stirred at −78° C. for 1 hr. This solution was then cannulated to a solution of 3-fluoro-4-((R)-7-oxo-6,7-dihydro-5H-pyrrolo[1,2-c]imidazol-5-yl)-benzonitrile (50 mg, 0.21 mmol) in THF (1 mL) cooled at −78° C. After stirring at −78° C. for 2 hrs, the crude was warmed to room temperature. The crude was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. The crude was quenched with sat. NH4Cl. The crude was diluted in EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude was purified via preparation plate using 7% (2M NH3 in MeOH)/CH2Cl2 to give 18 mg of the entitled product as the major diastereomer. MS 377.0 (M+H); LCMS condition A, retention time 1.23 min. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 3.09 (dd, 1H), 3.84 (dd, 1H), 5.96 (d, 1H), 7.02 (s, 1H), 7.24-7.53 (m, 6H), 7.85 (d, 1H), 7.93 (d, 1H).
