Reaction Steps

To a solution of diisopropylamine (9.5 mL, 67.2 mmol) in THF (100 ml) was added butyllithium (42 mL, 1.6M in hexanes, 67.2 mmol) drop wise at −78° C. and stirred for 30 min. Thus obtained LDA solution was immediately added by cannulation to a solution of Example 89C (7.36 g, 22.4 mmol) in THF (100 ml) at −78° C. and stirred for 30 min at the same temperature. Then, dry acetone (8.2 ml, 112 mmol, Acros) was added slowly and the reaction mixture was removed from cold bath and allowed to reach room temperature for overnight while stirring. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous NH4Cl solution (100 mL) and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, 0-100% ethyl acetate in hexanes) to afford 4.6 g (53%) of the title compound. MS (ESI+) m/z 387 (M+H)+
