Participants

Reaction Steps

To methyl magnesiumbromide (3M solution in diethyl ether, 0.225 ml) in anhydrous diethyl ether (7 ml) under a nitrogen atmosphere was added slowly 4-[4-chloro-3-[[(tricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]dec-1-ylmethyl)amino]carbonyl]benzoyl]-1-piperidinecarboxylic acid, 1,1-dimethylethyl ester (0.23 g, Example 76a) in anhydrous diethyl ether (7 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred for 14 h at room temperature, then poured onto crushed ice. A solution of 10% aqueous potassium hydrogen sulphate was added keeping the pH of the solution >4. The layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (4×25 ml). The organic extracts were combined, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in methanol (3 ml) and hydrochloric acid (4N solution in dioxane, 2 ml) and stirred for 14 h at room temperature. Solvents were then removed under reduced pressure and the product (0.11 g) was redissolved in dichloromethane (3 ml). Triethylamine (0.066 ml) was added followed by di-tert-butyl-dicarbonate (0.055 g) and the reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hour at room temperature. Water was added and the layers were partitioned. The organic extract was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by HPLC eluting with a gradient of 0-5% ethanol in dichloromethane, then by RPHPLC eluting with a gradient of 75-5% of 0.1% aqueous ammonium acetate in acetonitrile to give the subtitle compound as a white foam (0.06 g).
