Hydrogen chloride-ethyl acetate → HCID 71252960, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of (R)-1-{4-[4-(3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)piperazine-1-carbonyl]phenyl}-5-hydroxymethylpyrrolidin-2-one (200 mg) described in Example 284 and sodium hydride (22 mg) was added tetrahydrofuran, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 min. To the reaction mixture was added methyl tosylate (74 μL), and the mixture was further stirred at room temperature for 2 days. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated. The obtained residue was purified by column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate) to give (R)-1-{4-[4-(3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)piperazine-1-carbonyl]phenyl}-5-methoxymethylpyrrolidin-2-one. The obtained (R)-1-{4-[4-(3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)piperazine-1-carbonyl]phenyl}-5-methoxymethylpyrrolidin-2-one was dissolved in ethyl acetate, 4N hydrogen chloride/ethyl acetate was added, and the precipitate was collected by filtration to give the title compound (113 mg).
