N'-((2R,3R)-2-(4-Cyanonaphthalen-1-ylamino)-3-hydroxybutanoyl)benzohydrazide → 4-((1R,2R)-2-Hydroxy-1-(5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)propylamino)-1-naphthonitrile

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N′-((2R,3R)-2-(4-cyanonaphthalen-1-ylamino)-3-hydroxybutanoyl)benzohydrazide (846 mg, 2.18 mmol) in anhydrous THF (90 mL) at room temperature was added 2-tert-butylamino-2-diethylamino-1,3-dimethyl perhydro-1,3,2-diazaphosphorine on polystyrene (2.2 mmol base/g) (2.97 g, 6.53 mmol) followed by p-TSCl (498 mg, 2.60 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 75 min. The mixture was filtered under suction and the residue washed with acetone (3×100 mL) followed by MeOH (3×150 mL). The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to provide a off white solid, which was purified by flash chromatography over silica gel (25-40% EtOAc in hexanes) to provided the title compound as a yellow solid (2.1 mg, 0.3%): 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, δ in ppm) 8.19 (d, J=8.2 Hz, 1H), 7.92 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.84 (d, J=7.0 Hz, 2H), 7.80 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.67 (t, J=7.0 Hz, 1H), 7.63-7.53 (m, 2H), 7.49 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 2H), 6.74 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 5.41 (d, J=9.4 Hz, 1H), 4.95 (d, J=2.9 Hz, 1H), 4.75-4.64 (m, 1H), 1.50 (d, J=6.4 Hz, 3H).
