2-Amino-1-(4-bromo-phenyl)-ethanone HCl (5.8 g, 23 mmol) in DMF (75 mL) was treated with 1-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-cyclobutanecarboxylic acid (5.0 g, 23 mmol), HATU (9.7 g, 25 mmol), and DIPEA (12.9 mL, 34 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 18 hours and concentrated. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc (25 mL), and washed with saturated NaHCO3 (3 10 mL), H2O (10 mL), and brine (10 mL). The solution was dried over MgSO4 to afford crude {1-[2-(4-bromo-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylcarbamoyl]-cyclobutyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester, which was used without further purification. This material (6.54 g, 16 mmol) in xylenes (40 mL) was treated with ammonium acetate (6.1 g, 80 mmol). The reaction was stirred at 130° C. in a sealed tube for 18 hours. The mixture was concentrated and suspended in dicholormethane (100 mL) and washed with saturated NaHCO3 (50 mL). The solution was dried over MgSO4 to afford crude {1-[5-(4-bromo-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-cyclobutyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester, which was used without further purification: MS (ESI) m/z 393 [M+H]+. {1-[1H-Imidazol-2-yl]-cyclobutyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester boronic acid: {1-[5-(4-Bromo-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-cyclobutyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (110 mg, 0.28) in 1,4-dioxane (2.5 mL) was treated with bis(pinacolato)diboron (150 mg, 0.59 mmol), Pd(PPh3)4 (13 mg, 0.011 mmol), and KOAc (71 mg, 0.73 mmol). The mixture was stirred in a sealed tube at 80° C. for 18 hours. The mixture was filtered through a fritted glass funnel and concentrated. The mixture was subjected to a reverse phase HPLC column (5-95% MeCN—H2O; 0.1% TFA modifier) to afford {1-[1H-imidazol-2-yl]-cyclobutyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester boronic acid. 2-(5-{4′-[2-(1-tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-cyclobutyl)-3H-imidazol-4-yl]-biphenyl-4-yl}-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester: 1-[1H-Imidazol-2-yl]-cyclobutyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester boronic acid (60 mg, 0.17 mmol) and 245-(4-bromo-phenyl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (65 mg, 17 mmol) in 3:1 DME/H2O (1.5 mL) were treated with Pd(PPh3)4 (10 mg, 0.0084 mmol) and K2CO3 (2 M solution, 0.25 mL, 0.50 mmol). The mixture was stirred in a sealed tube at 80° C. for 18 hours. The mixture was filtered through a fitted glass funnel and concentrated. The mixture was subjected to a reverse phase HPLC column (5-95% MeCN—H2O; 0.1% TFA modifier) to afford 2-(5-{4′-[2-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-cyclobutyl)-3H-imidazol-4-yl]-biphenyl-4-yl}-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (10 mg, 9%): MS (ESI) m/z 625 [M+H]+. (1-{2-[5-(4′-{2-[1-(2-Methoxycarbonylamino-3-methyl-butyrylamino)-cyclobutyl]-3H-imidazol-4-yl}-biphenyl-4-yl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-pyrrolidine-1-carbonyl}-2-methyl-propyl)-carbamic acid methyl ester: 2-(5-{4′-[2-(1-tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-cyclobutyl)-3H-imidazol-4-yl]-biphenyl-4-yl}-1H-imidazol-2-yl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (9.8 mg, 0.016 mmol) was treated with 4 N HCl/dioxane (1.5 mL) and stirred for 4 hours. The mixture was concentrated and suspended in DMF (1.5 mL). The mixture was treated with (5)-Moc-Val-OH (6.0 mg, 0.032 mmol), HATU (13 mg, 0.034 mmol), and N-methyl morpholone (0.009 mL, 0.080 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 18 hours and concentrated. The mixture was subjected to a reverse phase HPLC column (5-95% MeCN—H2O; 0.1% TFA modifier) to afford (1-{2-[5-(4′-2-[1-(2-methoxycarbonylamino-3-methyl-butyrylamino)-cyclobutyl]-3H-imidazol-4-yl}-biphenyl-4-yl)-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-pyrrolidine-1-carbonyl-2-methyl-propyl)-carbamic acid methyl ester (2.8 mg, 24%) as a white solid (TFA salt): 1H NMR (CD3OD, 300 MHz) 7.88 (m, 10H), 5.20 (m, 1H), 4.23 (d, J=7.2 Hz, 1H), 4.12 (m, 1H), 3.88 (app d, J=7.2 Hz, 2H), 3.66 (s, 3H), 3.63 (s, 3H), 2.85 (br m, 2H), 2.65 (m, 4H), 2.09 (m, 10H), 0.95 (m, 12H); MS (ESI) m/z 739 [M+H]+.
