Dibutyltin oxide → 5-(3-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butyl)-1-{3-[4-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-phenyl]-propyl}-pyrrolidin-2-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

Analogous to the procedure described for Example 4A, Step E, 4-{3-[2-(3-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butyl)-5-oxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl]-propyl}-benzonitrile (157.8 mg, 0.419 mmol) was reacted with azidotrimethylsilane (0.11 mL, 0.84 mmol) and dibutyltin oxide (20 mg, 0.08 mmol) in toluene (8.6 mL) heated under reflux for 60 h. Purification by medium pressure chromatography (CH2Cl2 to 2% MeOH in CH2Cl2 to 4% MeOH in CH2Cl2 to 6% MeOH in CH2Cl2) provided 5-(3-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butyl)-1-{3-[4-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-phenyl]-propyl}-pyrrolidin-2-one (144.7 mg). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ8.02 (m, 2H), 7.27 (m, 7H), 3.84 (m, 1H), 3.67 (m, 2H), 3.10 (m, 1H), 2.84 (m, 1H), 2.67 (m, 2H), 2.53 (m, 1H), 2.42 (m, 1H), 2.14 (m, 1H), 1.97–1.40 (m, 9H); MS 420.3 (M+1), 418.3 (M−1).
