Imidazole → 5-Pyridin-3-yl-thiophene-2-sulfonic acid {1-[2-(tert-butyl-dimethyl-silanyloxy)-5-cyano-benzyl]-2-oxo-pyrrolidin-3-(S)-yl}amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Imidazole (0.094 g, 1.37 mmol) and t-butyldimethylchlorosilane (0.099 g, 0.66 mmol) are added to a solution of 5-pyridin-3-yl-thiophene-2-sulfonic acid {1-[5-cyano-2-hydroxy-benzyl]-2-oxo-pyrrolidin-3-yl}-amide (0.25 g, 0.55 mmol) in 10 mL of DMF. The resulting mixture is stirred overnight, then diluted with EtOAc and washed with saturated NaHCO3 (aq) and brine. The organic layer is dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The product is purified by column chromatography eluting with 3% MeOH/CH2Cl2 to give a brown oil (0.236 g, 0.41 mmol).
