1-Ethyl-3-(3'-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide → tert-butyl (3S,5R)-3-[{[1-(4-methoxybutyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]carbonyl}(2-methylpropyl)amino]-5-[methoxy(methyl)carbamoyl]piperidine-1-carboxylate

Reaction Steps

(3R,5S)-1-(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)-5-[{[1-(4-methoxybutyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]carbonyl}(2-methylpropyl)amino]piperidine-3-carboxylic acid (7.5 g), WSC.HCL (4.06 g) and HOBt (3.25 g) were dissolved in DMF (50 ml), N-methoxymethylamine hydrochloride (1.38 g) and triethylamine (7.88 ml) were added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 hr. The reaction mixture was diluted with water, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with water and brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and a fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:4-9:1) was concentrated under reduced pressure to give the object product (4.76 g).
