Reaction Steps

1-(4-Fluorophenyl)-3-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-hydroxypropyl]-4-(4-hydroxyphenyl) azetidin-2-one (J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 973-980; 50 mg, 0.122 mmol), tert-butylbromoacetate (24 μl, 0.165 mmol), sodium carbonate (80 mg, 0.76 mmol) and a catalytic amount of caesium carbonate were added to MeCN (3 ml) and the mixture was stirred for 1.5 hours at 50° C. The solids were filtered off and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue by column chromatography using DCM/EtOAc (100/7) as eluent gave 35 mg, (55%) of the title compound. NMR (300 MHz): 1.45 (s, 9H), 1.8-2.1 (m, 4H), 2.25-2.3 (m, 1H), 3.05-3.15 (m, 1H), 4.5 (s, 2H), 4.55-4.6 (m, 1H), 4.75 (bs, 1H), 6.9-7.3 (m, 12H); m/z 524.3.
