Reaction Steps
Step 1 (Scheme 1, Step 1): To a solution of Boc-HYP-OH (1.0 g, 4.324 mmol) in DMF (20 mL), NaH (0.38 g of 60% dispersion in mineral oil, 9.513 mmol) was added at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 hr. Then 2,4-dichloropyrimidine (0.709 g, 0.0289 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was warmed to rt and stirred for overnight. It was then quenched with 1N HCl solution and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine and dried (MgSO4). Evaporation of solvent gave crude product which was then purified by Prep. HPLC to give colorless oil as product. (0.4 g, 27% yield) 1H NMR (CD3OD, 300 MHz) δ 1.13 (m, 9H), 2.37 (m, 1H), 2.62 (m, 1H), 3.70-3.84 (m, 2H), 4.38 (m, 1H), 5.65 (m, 1H), 6.88 (d, J=5.86 Hz, 1H), 8.37 (d, J=5.86 Hz, 1H). LC-MS (retention time: 1.370 min.), MS m/z 344 (MH+). Step 2: (Scheme 1, Step 2) To a solution of (2S,4R) 4-(2-Chloro-pyrimidin-4-yloxy)-pyrrolidine-1,2-dicarboxylic acid 1-tert-butyl ester (0.34 g, 0.99 mmol) in CH3CN (20 mL) was added (1R,2S)/(1S,2R) (1-cyclopropanesulfonyl-aminocarbonyl-2-vinyl-cyclo-propyl)-carbamic acid (0.511 g, 1.48 mmol), DIEA (0.86 mL, 4.95 mmol) and the coupling reagent HOBt (0.226 g, 1.48 mmol) and HBTU (0.561 g, 1.48 mmol). The solution was stirred at rt. overnight. Then it was concentrated, washed with water and extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. It was then purified by Prep. HPLC column to give a yellow solid (intermediate 4). (0.33 g, 41% yield) 1H NMR (CD3OD, 300 MHz) 8 diasteoromer mixture. LC-MS (retention time: 2.907 min.), MS m/z 655 (MH+). Step 3: (Scheme 2, Step 1) To a solution of intermediate 4 (50 mg, 0.061 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (2.5 mL), 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (0.011 mL, 0.0915 mmol) and Et3N (0.021 mL, 0.153 mmol) were added. The reaction mixture was stirred at rt for overnight and at 40° C. for 1 day. The solvent was stripped and the residue was purified by Prep. HPLC to give a colorless oil. It was then dissolved in 4N HCl in dioxane (1 mL) and stirred for overnight. Evaporation of solvent gave a colorless oil as hydrochloride salt. (20 mg, 52% yield) LC-MS (retention time: 1.160 min.), MS m/z 553 (MH+). Step 4: (Scheme 2, Step 2) To a solution of 4-[2-(3,4-Dihydro-1H-isoquinolin-2-yl)-pyrimidin-4-yloxy]-pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid (1-cyclopropanesulfonylaminocarbonyl-2-vinyl-cyclopropyl)-amide hydrochloride (20 mg, 0.032 mmol) in CH3CN (5 mL) was added 2-methoxycarbonylamino-3,3-dimethyl-butyric acid (9.1 mg, 0.048 mmol), DIEA (0.028 mL, 0.16 mmol) and the coupling reagent HOBt (7.3 mg, 0.048 mmol) and HBTU (18.2 mg, 0.048 mmol). The solution was stirred at rt. overnight. Then it was concentrated, washed with water and extracted with ethyl acetate twice. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to give yellowish oil. It was purified by Prep. HPLC column to give a colorless oil as TFA salt (Compound 341). (16 mg, 60% yield) 1H NMR (CD3OD, 500 MHz) δ 0.98-1.06 (m, 13H), 1.13 (m, 1H), 1.22-1.32 (m, 1H), 1.35-1.44 (m, 1H), 1.82 (dd, J=8.24, 5.19 Hz, 0.5H), 1.90 (dd, J=8.24, 5.49 Hz, 0.5H), 2.26 (m, 1H), 2.32-2.43 (m, 1H), 2.56 (m, 1H), 2.96 (m, 1H), 3.11 (m, br, 2H), 3.56 (s, 3H), 4.14 (m, 1H), 4.21 (m, 1H), 4.38 (m, 1H), 4.47 (m, 1H), 5.15 (m, 1H), 5.31 (m, 1H), 5.75 (m, 1H), 5.94 (s, 1H), 6.47 (d, J=7.02 Hz, 1H), 7.29 (s, 4H), 7.49 (m, 1H), 7.56 (m, 1H), 7.74 (d, J=8.24 Hz, 1H), 7.88 (d, J=8.24 Hz, 1H), 8.11 (d, J=7.02 Hz, 1H).
