Diisopropylethylamine → Tert-butyl 9-(4-fluoro-3-methoxybenzoyl)-3,9-diazaspiro[5.5]undecane-3-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of tert-butyl 3,9-diazaspiro[5.5]undecane-3-carboxylate (30 mg, 0.12 mmol; U.S. Pat. No. 5,451,578), 4-fluoro-3-methoxybenzoic acid (20 mg, 0.12 mmol; Aldrich), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.025 mL, 0.14 mmol), and O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU; 54 mg, 0.14 mmol; Aldrich) in anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide (1 mL) was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction was diluted with water (10 mL) and extracted with dichloromethane (2×10 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to provide the title compound which was carried on to the next step without further purification.
