Reaction Steps

Charge a flask with cis-1-[4-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-cyclohexyl]-pyrrolidin-2-one (Preparation 17) (1.0 g, 3.4 mmol), dissolve with THF (0.2 M) and cool to −78° C. Add LDA (1.1 to 1.5 eq) and stir at −78° C. for 5 minutes. Add 4-bromo-1-bromomethyl-2-chloro-benzene (1.4 g, 5.0 mmol) and warm to room temperature overnight. Dilute with methanol (0.2 M) and add concentrated HCl (10 eq.) and stir at room temperature. Pour into water after reaction complete by HPLC and extract with methylene chloride, dry over sodium sulfate, filter and concentrate in vacuo. Purify the residue over silica gel (20% hexane in ethyl acetate) to afford 911 mg (70%) of the title compound: Mass spectrum (apci) m/z=387.9 (M+H).
