Lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (LiHMDS) (38.0 mL, 1 M in THF) was added slowly dropwise over 25 min to a solution of (2S,5R)-2-tert-butyl-3-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-5-methyl-1-(2,2,2-trifluoro-acetyl)-imidazolidin-4-one (10.0 g, 25.17 mmol) in 60 mL of THF at −20° C. After stirring at −20° C. for 20 min, a solution of 4-trifluoromethoxybenzyl bromide (6.04 mL, 37.76 mmol) in 30 mL of THF was added dropwise over 20 min. The mixture was stirred at −20° C. for 45 min, warmed to −5° C. over 1 h, and then poured over 50 mL of ice-cold saturated NH4Cl solution. The resulting mixture was extracted with two portions of EtOAc (200, 100 mL). The combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was triturated with hexanes to afford 12.5 g (87%) of (2R,5R)-2-tert-butyl-3-(3,5-dichloro-phenyl)-5-methyl-1-(2,2,2-trifluoro-acetyl)-5-(4-trifluoromethoxy-benzyl)-imidazolidin-4-one as an off-white solid.
