Reaction Steps

The product from step g) (605 mg, 1.46 mmol) in dichloroethane (7 ml) was treated with powdered K2CO3 (806 mg, 5.84 mmol) and 1-chloroethyl chloroformate (Ace-Cl) (632 μl, 5.84 mmol) at 80° C. for 16 hours. Next, the reaction was cooled, filtered and concentrated providing an oily residue. This oily residue was diluted with anhydrous MeOH (15 ml) and stirred for 1 hour at 22° C. The solvent was concentrated and the crude residue was purified by preparative LC/MS providing title compound. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CD3OD, ppm) 2.65-2.75 (m, 1H); 3.05-3.30 (m, 2H); 3.32-3.80 (m, 4H); 4.10-4.28 (br m, 1H); MS calculated for C9H9Br2NS+H 324, observed 322, 324, 326.
