Procedure

A solution of (2R)-2-[2-(tert-butoxy)-2-oxoethyl]-5-cyclohexylpentanoic acid (Preparation 1) (500 mg, 1.70 mmol) in dichloromethane (30 ml) was treated with 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (272 mg, 1.70 mol) and the solution was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The N′-hydroxy-2-methoxyethanimidamide (J.Med.Chem,; 40; 8; 1997; 1230-1246) (177 mg, 1.70 mmol) was then added and the mixture was stirred for 17 hours. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was heated neat at 120° C. under a nitrogen atmosphere for 2 hours. The crude product was then purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with dichloromethane:methanol (99:1) to afford the title compound as an oil (350 mg).
