Reaction Steps

Example 1, Alternative Preparation, Step 8: To a mixture of acetamide 11 (28.5 g, HCl salt, 73.6% free base assay), acetonitrile (100 mL), N,N,-di-isopropyl-N-ethylamine (61 mL) at room temperature was added a solution of 13 (˜21.2 g) in MeCN (˜450 mL). The homogeneous mixture was held overnight. Upon reaction completion (HPLC), the mixture was concentrated in vacuo to approx. 125 mL. A 9.5% aqueous solution of acetic acid (240 mL) was added and the aqueous phase was extracted with methylene chloride. The aqueous phase was separated and methyl tert-butyl ether (450 mL) was added, followed by 2N aqueous lithium hydroxide solution to adjust to pH>11.5. The organic layer was separated, washed with water and filtered. Approx. half of the ether phase was diluted with methyl tert-butyl ether (˜250 mL) and concentrated in vacuo. Heptane (45 mL) was added slowly below 60° C., followed by seed crystals of Example 1 (0.4 g). Additional heptane (125 mL) was added and the mixture was slowly cooled to room temperature and the resulting slurry was held overnight. The product was isolated by filtration, the cake was washed with heptane and dried in vacuo to constant weight to give N-((1R,2S,5R)-5-(isopropylamino)-2-((S)-2-oxo-3-(6-(trifluoromethyl)-quin-azolin-4-ylamino)pyrrolidin-1-yl)cyclohexyl)acetamide 14 (15.0 g, 85% yield).
