Trimethylsilyl iodide → (S)-3-amino-2-(3-(2-chloro-3-fluorobenzyl)-1-methylureido)propyl isoquinolin-3-ylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of isoquinolin-3-yl-carbamic acid (S)-3-benzyloxycarbonylamino-2-[3-(2-chloro-3-fluoro-benzyl)-1-methyl-ureido]-propyl ester (1.3 g, 2.13 mmol) in CH3CN (20.0 mL) was added TMSI (0.35 mL, 2.56 mmol). The mixture was stirred at RT for 15 min and quenched with MeOH (20.0 mL). The resulting mixture was stirred for another 15 min, concentrated to dryness, and partitioned in between ether (30 mL) and HCl (2 N, 20 mL). The aqueous layer was separated, basified to pH 9, and extracted with EtOAc (200 mL×2). The combined organic layers were washed brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give (S)-3-amino-2-(3-(2-chloro-3-fluorobenzyl)-1-methylureido)propyl isoquinolin-3-ylcarbamate (2.7 g) as a light yellow foam solid, which was used without further purification. LRMS (M+H+) m/z 460.1.
