4-Methylmorpholine → HCID 66705936, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred suspension of (RS)-tert-butyl 3-(4-aminophenyl)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (200 mg, CAS 908334-28-1) in DMF (10 ml) were added sequentially N-methylmorpholine (0.22 ml), TBTU (490 mg) and 5-chloro-2-pyridine carboxylic acid (180 mg) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 90 min. The mixture was then diluted with ethyl acetate and washed sequentially with 1 M aq. hydrochloric acid and with saturated brine. The phases were separated and the organic phase was dried over sodium sulphate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography (SiO2; gradient: heptane/EtOAc) to give (RS)-3-{4-[(5-chloro-pyridine-2-carbonyl)-amino]-phenyl}-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (310 mg, quant.) as a white solid. MS (ISP): 421.3 ([M+NH4]+), 419.2 ([M+NH4]+).
