Reaction Steps

A mixture of N-(((2S,4R)-1-(biphenylcarbonyl)-4-hydroxypyrrolidin-2-yl)methyl)quinoline-8-carboxamide (0.045 g, 0.10 mmol) in DCM was cooled to −78° C., added with bis(2-methoxyethyl)aminosulfur trifluoride (Aldrich) (41 μL, 0.22 mmol) dropwise. The resulting solution was stirred at −78° C. for 0.5 h, allowed to warm to rt gradually over 1.5 h and stirred at rt for 0.5 h, which was quenched by slow addition of MeOH and purified by preparative HPLC using acetonitrile and water (0.1% TFA) as eluent to provide N-(((2S,4S)-1-(biphenylcarbonyl)-4-fluoropyrrolidin-2-yl)methyl)quinoline-8-carboxamide as a white solid. MS (ESI) 454.14 (M+H).
