Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (S)-(3,5-Bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-(2-methyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-(7-methyl-8-trifluoromethyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]azepin-5-yl)-amine (Example 3, Step 18) (0.91 mmol) in toluene (5 mL), add phosgene (0.91 mmol) as a 1.93 M solution in toluene. Next, add diisopropylethylamine (0.96 mmol) dropwise at room temperature. After stirring at room temperature for 1 h, dilute the reaction with ethyl acetate (10 mL) and wash with water (5 mL). Dry the organic phase over sodium sulfate, filter, and remove solvent under a stream of nitrogen. Chromatograph the product over silica gel, eluting with ethyl acetate/hexane (5-25%), to afford the title compound as a colorless foam. MS (ES+): 615 (M+H).
