Reaction Steps

To tert-butyl-4-{3-[(3R)-3-{[(1S)-1-(5-hydroxypyridin-3-yl)-3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl]carbamoyl}piperidin-1-yl]-3-oxopropyl}piperidine-1-carboxylate (100 mg, 0.18 mmol) in DMF (3 mL) was added sodium hydride (8 mg, 60% 0.2 mmol). The solution was cooled to 0° C. and 2-bromo-4-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile (55 mg, 0.2 mmol) while stirring. The mixture was warmed to room temperature and quenched by addition of water and ethyl acetate after 45 minutes. Phases were separated and the water phase was extracted with ethyl acetate. Combined organic extracts were concentrated in vacuum and the residue was purified by preparative HPLC to yield 46 mg of tert-butyl-4-{3-[(3R)-3-{[(1S)-1-{5-[(3-bromo-4-cyanobenzyl)oxy]pyridin-3-yl}-3-methoxy-3-oxopropyl]carbamoyl}piperidin-1-yl]-3-oxopropyl}piperidine-1-carboxylate.
