Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 6-(2-cyano-3-nitrophenoxy)hexylcarbamate (333 mmol, 121 mg) (Example 277c) in dixoane (2 mL) was added con. HCl (1 mL). After 15 minutes, the solution was concentrated in vacuo and dried on high vacuum. The crude HCl salt was suspended in DCM (dry, 10 mL) and treated with pyridine (2.664 mmol, 215 μL) and 1-chloro-2-methyl-1-oxopropan-2-yl acetate (1.332 mmol, 193 μL). The reaction mixture was refluxed under a nitrogen atmosphere until clear (6 h), then cooled to room temperature and the volatiles removed in vacuo. The residue was purified on silica gel (40% to 100% EtOAc in hexanes) to give the product (117 mg, 90%) as a light yellow heavy oil. MS 392 (MH+).
