Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-[(4-chloro-benzyl)-(2-methyl-azetidine-2-carbonyl)-amino]-butyric acid methyl ester hydrochloride, Intermediate 23 (1 eq.) and TEA (5 eq.) in THF under nitrogen was added 3,5-dimethyl-phenyl-isocyanate (1.5 eq.). The reaction was stirred for 15 h at 20° C. The crude was partitioned between a saturated aqueous solution of NaHCO3 and EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude was purified by chromatography on silica gel (elution with heptane/EtOAc: 75/25 to 40/60) to afford 4-{(4-chloro-benzyl)-[1-(3,5-dimethyl-phenylcarbamoyl)-2-methyl-azetidine-2-carbonyl]-amino}-butyric acid methyl ester.
