Reaction Steps

To a dry solution of (R)-2-[(RS)-2-(2-bromo-5-fluoro-pyridin-4-yl)-2-(2-nitro-benzenesulfonyl-amino)-propoxy]-3,3,3-trifluoro-2-methyl-propionamide (860 mg, 1.35 mmol) in DCM (9 ml) was added at rt NEt3 (0.470 ml, 342 mg, 3.38 mmol). At 0° C., trifluoroacetic anhydride (0.229 ml, 340 mg, 1.62 ml) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to rt and to stir for 1.5 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with 1M aq. Na2CO3 soln. and DCM. The phases were separated and the aq. phase was twice reextracted with DCM. The combined org. phases were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to yield the crude title compound as an orange solid that was used in the next step without further purification (diastereomer mixture). RtH4=1.19 min; ESIMS: 555, 557 [(M+H)+]; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 8.01-7.93 (m, 2H), 7.79-7.63 (m, 3H), 7.59 (m, 1H), 4.26-4.16 (m, 2H), 1.85-1.84 (2d, 3H), 1.78-1.76 (2d, 3H).
