Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-bromonicotinic acid (303 mg, 1.5 mmol), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.523 mL, 3.0 mmol), and (R)-(−)-S-methyl-S-phenylsulfoximine (233 mg, 1.5 mmol) in DMF (3.0 mL) cooled to 0° C. was added 1-benzotriazolyloxytripyrrolidinylphosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBOP) (859 mg, 1.65 mmol). The solution was stirred 10 minutes, the ice bath removed, and the reaction continued at room temperature for 2.5 hours. The mixture was taken up in EtOAc and washed with H2O, Na2CO3 solution, brine, AcOH solution, H2O, Na2CO3 solution, brine, dried with anhydrous Na2SO4 and rotary evaporated. The brown oil was chromatographed eluting with hexane/EtOAc to give the title compound as a yellow solid (478 mg, 94%).
