Reaction Steps

N-[(5S)-3-(3-fluoro-4-(4-(1-benzotriazolyloxy)carbonylimidazol-1-yl)phenyl)-2-oxooxazolidin-5-ylmethyl]acetamide (prepared as detailed for Exarnples 49-80; 243 mg, 0.5 mM) dissolved in DMF (4 ml) was treated with 2-(N-methylaminomethyl)pyridine (68 mg, 0.55mM). The mixture was stirred under nitrogen, and heated to 55° for 18 hours. After cooling, the mixture was diluted with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution (20 ml), extracted with ethyl acetate (2×10 ml), the extract washed with water and dried over magnesium sulfate. After evaporation the residue was dissolved in dichloromethane and the solution chromatographed on a 10 g silica Mega Bond Elut® column, eluting with a gradient increasing in polarity from 0 to 20% methanol in dichloromethane. Relevant fractions were combined and evaporated to give title product (52 mg).
