Methylamine → (1R,10R,11S,16S)-3-methoxy-N,1,11,15,15-pentamethyl-8,8-dioxo-8lambda6-thiatetracyclo[8.8.0.02,7.011,16]octadeca-2,4,6-triene-5-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (1R,10R,11S,16S)-3-methoxy-1,11,15,15-tetramethyl-8,8-dioxo-8λ6-thiatetracyclo[8.8.0.02,7.011,16]octadeca-2,4,6-triene-5-carboxylic acid (80) (0.26 g, 0.61 mmol), HATU, (0.36 g, 0.93 mmol), NMM (0.20 mL, 1.9 mmol) and methylamine (2 M in THF, 1.5 mL, 3.0 mmol) in THF (10 mL) and DMF (2.0 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 18 h in a sealed tube. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was quenched with water. The resulting solid was collected by filtration to give (1R,10R,11S,16S)-3-methoxy-N,1,11,15,15-pentamethyl-8,8-dioxo-8λ6-thiatetracyclo[8.8.0.02,7.011,16]octadeca-2,4,6-triene-5-carboxamide (81) (0.11 g, 41%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 7.67 (d, 1H), 7.61 (d, 1H), 6.27 (s, 1H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 3.40-3.17 (m, 3H), 3.01 (d, 3H), 2.30 (d, 1H), 1.78-1.28 (m, 10H), 1.23-1.00 (m, 3H), 0.97 (s, 3H), 0.87 (s, 3H), 0.84 (s, 3H). MS m/z 434 (C24H35NO4S+H+).
