Ethyl Acetate → 5-(3,3-dimethyl-but-1-ynyl)-3-[(1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]dec-8-yl)-((1S)-4-methyl-cyclohex-3-enecarbonyl)-amino]-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester

Reaction Steps

(1S)-4-Methyl-cyclohex-3-enecarboxylic acid chloride (1.5 mmol), 5-(3,3-dimethyl-but-1-ynyl)-3-(1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]dec-8-ylamino)-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (159 mg, 0.42 mmol) and potassium phosphate tribasic (266 mg, 1.25 mmol) was suspended in dichloroethane (1 mL), sealed with a cap and heated to 90° C. After 16 h, the reaction mixture was cooled and partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous extracted again with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Flash chromatography (15-60% EtOAc:Hexanes) afforded 128 mg (61% yield) of the desired 5-(3,3-dimethyl-but-1-ynyl)-3-[(1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]dec-8-yl)-((1S)-4-methyl-cyclohex-3-enecarbonyl)-amino]-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester as a white foam.
