Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(benzyloxy)-10-(((benzyloxy)carbonyl)amino)-4-oxo-4,6,7,8,9,10-hexahydro-7,10-ethanopyrimido[1,2-a]azepine-2-carboxylic acid, Intermediate 4 (1 g, 2.043 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (20 mL) was added oxalyl chloride (0.286 mL, 3.27 mmol). A few drops of DMF was then added and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 2 h. Solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the crude acid chloride was diluted with dichloromethane (10 mL) and added to a stirred solution of 1-amino-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propan-2-one HCl (0.458 g, 2.247 mmol) and triethylamine (1.139 mL, 8.17 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (20 mL). The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 16 h then poured into sat. NaHCO3 and extracted with dichloromethane (50 mL×3), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated to give a yellow oil. The crude product was then purified by silica gel chromatography (50-100% EtOAc/hexane) to afford the title compound (770 mg, 1.206 mmol, 59.0% yield) as a light yellow solid. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.99 (1H, br. s.), 7.49 (2H, d, J=5.80 Hz), 7.28-7.37 (8H, m), 7.15 (2H, dd, J=8.55, 5.49 Hz), 7.01-7.04 (2H, m), 6.79 (1H, br. s.), 5.32 (2H, s), 5.06 (2H, s), 4.17 (2H, d, J=4.88 Hz), 4.12 (2H, d, J=3.66 Hz), 3.69 (2H, s), 2.67-2.78 (2H, m), 2.47 (1H, br. s.), 1.89-2.01 (4H, m), 1.64-1.72 (2H, m). LCMS (M+H)=640.04.
