Reaction Steps

A suspension of 0.250 (0.85 mmol) of 6-chloro-7-(3-fluorophenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-8-carboxamide, 0.518 g (1.02 mmol) of 4-nitrophenyl 3-(tert-butyldiphenylsilanoxy)-2,2-dimethylpropylcarbamate and 0.235 g (1.70 mmol) of sodium carbonate in 3 ml of acetonitrile is heated at 65° C. for 1 hour 30 minutes. After cooling, the mixture is poured into aqueous 1N sodium hydroxide solution and the product is extracted with dichloromethane. After drying over sodium sulfate and filtering, the solvent is evaporated off under reduced pressure and the residue is purified by chromatography on a column of silica gel, eluting with a mixture of 35 to 65% ethyl acetate in cyclohexane, to give 0.44 g of N2-(3-(tert-butyldiphenylsilanoxy)-2,2-dimethylpropyl)-6-chloro-7-(3-fluorophenyl)-3,4-dihydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-2,8(1H)-dicarboxamide in the form of a pale yellow foam.
