Reaction Steps

To 160b (1.0010 g, 2.6 mmol) dissolved in acetone (25 mL) was added a solution of N-cycloheptylamine (0.35 mL, 2.6 mmol) in acetone (5 mL) followed by addition of 2.5 N NaOH (1.0 mL, 2.6 mmol) and water (2.5 mL). The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at reflux for 3 hours under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was extracted 3 times with dichloromethane; the combined organic layers were washed with brine and dried over potassium carbonate. After filtering, the sample was concentrated by rotary evaporation and the resulting solid was dried overnight under vacuum. Flash column chromatography (SiO2, 70:30 hexanes:ethyl acetate) yielded a white solid (160c, 855 mg, 72%), mp 110° C.; HPLC: Inertsil ODS-3V C18, 30:70 [KH2PO4 (0.01M, pH 3.2): CH3CN], 264 nm, Rt 47.3 min, 94.7% purity; MS (TOF MS ES+): m/z 535 (44.7), 460 (73.3), 458 (M+H, 100).
