2-Aminothiazole → 3-cyclopentyl-2-[3-fluoro-4-(5-methyl-tetrazol-1-yl)-phenyl]-N-thiazol-2-yl-propionamide

Temperature

0 °C

A solution of triphenylphosphine (288 mg, 1.1 mmol) in methylene chloride (6 mL) was cooled to 0° C. and then treated with N-bromosuccinimide (196 mg, 1.1 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min and then treated with 3-cyclopentyl-2-[3-fluoro-4-(5-methyl-tetrazol-1-yl)-phenyl]-propionic acid (175 mg, 0.55 mmol). The clear solution was stirred for 15 min at 0° C. and then allowed to warm to 25° C. where it was stirred for 1.5 h. The reaction mixture was then treated with 2-aminothiazole (275 mg, 2.75 mmol), and the resulting suspension was stirred for 2 d at 25° C. The reaction mixture was then concentrated in vacuo to remove methylene chloride, and the residue was diluted with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and a 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (25 mL). The two layers were separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (1×25 mL). The combined organic extracts were successively washed with a 1N aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (1×50 mL), a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (1×50 mL) and a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (1×50 mL), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Biotage chromatography (FLASH 40S, Silica, 2/1 hexanes/ethyl acetate) afforded 3-cyclopentyl-2-[3-fluoro-4-(5-methyl-tetrazol-1-yl)-phenyl]-N-thiazol-2-yl-propionamide (80 mg, 36%) as an amorphous white solid: EI-HRMS m/e calcd for C19H21FN6OS (M+) 400.1482, found 400.1476.
