Triethylamine → N-[(1R,3S)-3-Isopropyl-3-({4-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]piperazin-1-yl}carbonyl)cyclopentyl]-3-methyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (1R,3S)-3-isopropyl-3-({4-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]piperazin-1-yl}carbonyl)cyclopentanamine (80 mg, 0.2 mmol), 3-methyltetrahydro-4H-pyran-4-one (71 mg, 0.62 mmol) and triethylamine (0.12 mL, 0.83 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) was added sodium triacetoxyborohydride (130 mg, 0.62 mmol). After being stirred at room temperature overnight, the solution was diluted with dichloromethane. The resulting solution was washed with NaHCO3 and brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The residue was purified on silica gel to give the desired product which was further separated by chiral HPLC affording four isomers. MS calculated for C26H38F3N3O2: (M+H) 482; found 482.2 for four isomers.
