Methanol → methyl {4-[(2S,4R)-1-acetyl-2-methyl-4-({[(1-methylethyl)oxy]carbonyl}amino)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-quinolinyl]-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl}acetate

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-methylethyl[(2S,4R)-1-acetyl-6-ethynyl-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-quinolinyl]carbamate (for a preparation, see Intermediate 58) (408 mg, 1.298 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) (8 mL) and methanol (0.9 mL) were successively added methyl azidoacetate (299 mg, 2.60 mmol) and copper(I) iodide (12.36 mg, 0.065 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at 100° C. under microwave irradiation for 2 h then cooled to room temperature and partitioned between brine and AcOEt. The layers were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (3×) and the combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over a Na2SO4 cartridge and concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the residue on SP4 using a 25 G silica cartridge (gradient: 2 to 10% MeOH in DCM) gave methyl {4-[(2S,4R)-1-acetyl-2-methyl-4-({[(1-methylethyl)oxy]carbonyl}amino)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-quinolinyl]-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl}acetate (468 mg, 1.046 mmol, 96%) as a viscous yellow oil.
