Reaction Steps

To 3-benzyl-9-oxa-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane dihydrochloride (25.08 g, 86.12 mmol; see Preparation O above) was added 2.5 M sodium hydroxide (115 mL). 3-(tert-Butyloxycarbonylamino)propyl 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenesulfonate (32.35 g, 90.50 mmol; see Preparation L above) and toluene (65 mL) were then added and the reaction mixture heated at 65° C. for 12 hours. The phases were separated at 65° C. and the lower (aqueous) layer discarded. The organic phase was re-heated to 65° C. and then extracted with 10% w/w aqueous citric acid (125 mL). The phases were separated and the upper (organic) phase discarded. To the aqueous citric acid phase was added isopropyl acetate (150 mL) and 5 M sodium hydroxide (75 mL). The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes. The phases were separated and the lower (aqueous) phase discarded. The resulting organic phase was dried (MgSO4), filtered and the solvent removed in vacuo to give the title compound as a colourless oil (29.13 g, 77.60 mmol, 90%).
