Participants

Reaction Steps

To a slurry of (S)-2-amino-1′-bromo-7′-(pyridin-3-yl)-5H-spiro[oxazole-4,9′-xanthen]-2′-ol (710 mg, 1.674 mmol), cesium carbonate (1091 mg, 3.35 mmol) and potassium iodide (306 mg, 1.841 mmol) in DMF (6694 μL, 1.674 mmol) at 0° C. was added 3-(bromomethyl)-3-methyloxetane (304 mg, 1.841 mmol). The reaction was removed from the ice bath and allowed to warm to rt. Reaction was allowed to stir at rt overnight before being diluted with water (250 mL) and poured into a separatory funnel containing ethyl acetate (100 mL). The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to provide a red oil that was purified by silica gel chromatography (Redi-Sep pre-packed silica gel column (40 g), 0-100% CH2Cl2 to 10:1 methanol in methylenechloride with 0.1% ammonium hydroxide) to provide (S)-1′-bromo-2′-((3-methyloxetan-3-yl)methoxy)-7′-(pyridin-3-yl)-5H-spiro[oxazole-4,9′-xanthen]-2-amine as an off white solid. MS m/z=508.0 [M+H].
