Trifluoroacetic acid → N-[2,2-dimethyl-1(S)-(pyridin-4-ylcarbamoyl)propyl]-3(R)-[3-[4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl]-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]succinamic acid benzyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

According to the procedure described in Example 1(b) for the preparation of N-(2,2-dimethyl-1(S)-(methylcarbamoyl)propyl)-3(R)-t-butoxycarbonylamino-succinamic acid benzyl ester, 2S-t-butoxycarbonylamino-3,3-dimethyl-N-(pyridin-4-yl)-butanamide (prepared as described in Example 5(d)) was deprotected with trifluoroacetic acid. The crude amine salt and 2(R)-[3-[4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl]-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]succinic acid 4-benzyl ester hydrochloride (prepared as described in Example 6(a)) were coupled with TBTU to provide after purification via column chromatography with 5% MeOH/CH2Cl2 and trituration with MTBE/hex, in 76% yield N-[2,2-dimethyl-1(S)-(pyridin-4-ylcarbamoyl)propyl]-3(R)-[3-[4-(pyridin-4-yl)phenyl]-1H-pyrrol-1-yl]succinamic acid benzyl ester as a pale yellow amorphous solid, which was used without further purification.
