Reaction Steps

A solution of tert-butyl 2-(tert-butoxycarbonyl(methyl)amino)-2-(3-oxopropyl)-6-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)hexanoate (193 mg, 0.40 mmol, 1.0 equiv) and pyrrolidine (43 mg, 0.60 mmol, 1.5 equiv) in 1,2-dichloroethane (2 mL) was treated with sodium triacetoxyborohydride (168 mg, 0.80 mmol) in one portion. After stirring at room temperature overnight, the reaction mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (1 mL) and stirred for an additional 5 min. The resulting mixture was added to a separatory funnel, diluted with saturated aqueous NaCl (5 mL) and extracted with dichloromethane (2×10 mL). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by flash column chromatography eluting with gradient 1-10% methanol in chloroform gave tert-butyl 2-(tert-butoxycarbonyl(methyl)amino)-2-(3-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)propyl)-6-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)hexanoate as an oil (186 mg, 88%). Rf 0.35 (10% methanol in dichloromethane). ESI MS found for C29H55BN2O6 m/z [539.4 (M+1)].
