Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl (8aS)-8a-(3-(5-chloropicolinamido)phenyl)-4,4a,5,7,8,8a-hexahydropyrano[4,3-d][1,3]thiazin-2-ylcarbamate (0.172 g, 0.342 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (8 mL) is added TFA (4 mL) and the reaction is stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The solvent is removed under reduced pressure. The residue is purified on a 10 g SCX column using 4:1 CH2Cl2:MeOH followed by 2:1 CH2Cl2: 7 N NH3 in MeOH to afford the title compound as a freebase (0.127 g, 92%). The freebase (0.124 g, 0.308 mmol) is dissolved in CH2Cl2 and treated with 1 M HCl in Et2O (0.65 mL, 0.605 mmol) and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure to afford the title compound (0.127 g, 78%). ES/MS m/e (35Cl/37Cl) 403, 405 (M+1).
