Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-methyl-4-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2-thiophenecarboxylic acid (138 mg, 0.62 mmol), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.541 ml, 3.10 mmol) and 2-[(2S)-2-amino-3-cyclohexylpropyl]-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione (200 mg, 0.62 mmol) [Prepared according to the procedure of Preparation 6, except substituting 3-cyclohexyl-N-{[(1,1-dimethylethyl)oxy]carbonyl}-L-alanine (5 g, 18.4 mmol) for N-{[(1,1-dimethylethyl)oxy]carbonyl}-2-(trifluoromethyl)-L-phenylalanine] in DCM at 25° C. was added bromo-tris-pyrrolidino-phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (347 mg, 0.74 mmol) in one portion. The solution stirred at 25° C. for 1 h and was then partitioned between H2O-DCM. The aqueous phase was washed several times with DCM and the combined organic fractions were dried over Na2SO4, concentrated and purified via column chromatography (silica, 50% EtOAc in hexanes) yielding N-{(1S)-2-cyclohexyl-1-[(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)methyl]ethyl}-5-methyl-4-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2-thiophenecarboxamide (285 mg, 0.581 mmol, 94% yield) as a white foam: LCMS (ES) m/e 491, 493 (M, M+2)+.
