Reaction Steps
Intermediate 2c (85.0 mg, 0.21 mmol) was dissolved in 1,4-dioxane (2 mL) and (5-tert-butyl-2-p-tolyl-2H-pyrazol-3-yl)-carbamic acid 2,2,2-trichloro-ethyl ester (Synthetic Communications, 2009, 39, 3999-4009, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety; 96.0 mg, 0.24 mmol) and DIPEA (75.0 μl, 0.43 mmol) were added. The reaction was heated to 60° C. for 18 h. After cooling, the mixture was partitioned between EtOAc (50 mL) and water (50 mL), and extracted into EtOAc (3×). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by FCC, using 0-10% [2M NH3 in MeOH] in DCM, then further purified by HPLC (C, 18 X-select column, 10-40% MeCN in H2O, 0.1% formic acid) to give the title compound mainly as formic acid salt (43.0 mg, 0.065 mmol, 31%). LCMS (Method 5) Rt 3.54 mins, m/z 662 [MH+]. 1H NMR (400 MHz, d4-MeOD): 1.30 (9H, s), 1.90-2.05 (2H, m), 2.06-2.15 (1H, m), 2.20-2.30 (1H, m), 2.38 (3H, s), 2.40 (3H, s), 2.55-2.75 (8H, br s), 2.90-2.95 (2H, t, J 7.4), 3.29-3.32 (2H, t, J 7.4), 4.86-4.92 (1H, dd, J 8.8, 5.6), 5.43-5.47 (1H, t, J 4.2), 6.33 (1H, s), 7.21-7.35 (11H, m), 7.60-7.64 (1H, d, J 9.9), 8.07-8.09 (1H, d, J 1.9), 8.40-8.50 (0.4H, br s, formate).
