2-Ethoxy-1-(ethoxycarbonyl)-1,2-dihydroquinoline → (2S,4S)-4-acetylthio-1-allyloxycarbonyl-2-(3-allyloxycarbonylphenylcarbamoyl)pyrrolidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

(2S,4S)-4-Acetylthio-1-allyloxycarbonyl-2-carboxypyrrolidine (2.54 g, 9.3 mM), allyl 3-aminobenzoate (1.5 g, 8.5 mM), and 2-ethoxy-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (2.72 g, 11 mM) were dissolved in toluene (50 ml) and stirred for 18 hours at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (150 ml) and washed with 2H HCl (3 by 30 ml), water, saturated NaHCO3, and brine. Drying over HgSO4 and evaporation gave (2S,4S)-4-acetylthio-1-allyloxycarbonyl-2-(3-allyloxycarbonylphenylcarbamoyl)pyrrolidine as a gum (3.7 g, 100%) in a state sufficiently pure for further work.
