Trifluoroacetic acid → HCID 67023668, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of the white solid (2.60 g, 5.8 mmole) isolated in Step B above, in dichloromethane (45 mL) was added trifluoroacetic acid (45 mL). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The solution was then concentrated. Hydrochloric acid solution (1N, 10 mL) was added and the resulting solution washed with diethyl ether one time. Sodium bicarbonate was added until there was no bubbling observed from the aqueous solution. The solution was extracted with ethyl acetate three times. The combined ethyl acetate extracts were dried over magnesium sulfate. The resulting solution was filtered and concentrated to yield 4-amino-4-(S),N-dicyclohexyl-N-(1H-imidazol-2-ylmethyl)-butyramide as a white solid.
