Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-(2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)-N-[cis-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-methoxy-1-(3-pyridinylmethyl)-2-naphthalenyl]-1-piperidineacetamide 19 (0.28 g, 0.37 mmol) in dichloromethane (2 mL) was added dropwise to a solution of boron tribromide (1.8 mmol) in dichloromethane (22 mL) at 0° C. After stirring the resultant solution at 0° C. for 1.5 h, methanol (˜2 mL) was added and stirring was continued at 0° C. for an additional 0.5 h. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo, and the residue was purified by reverse phase C18 HPLC using a water/acetonitrile/TFA gradient, 90/10/0.1 to 10/90/0.1, as the eluant. The product was dissolved in methanol and treated with ethanolic hydrochloric acid. The solvent was evaporated and the process repeated twice to give 4-(2,3-dihydro-2-oxo-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)-N-[cis-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-hydroxy-1-(3-pyridinylmethyl)-2-naphthalenyl]-1-piperidineacetamide bis-hydrochloride salt 23 (0.148, 68%) as a colorless solid: 1H NMR(DMSO-d6) δ 1.73-2.03 (m, 4 H), 2.70-2.94 (m, 4 H), 3.05-3.20 (br s, 2 H), 3.27-3.47 (m, 3 H), 3.55-3.76 (m, 2 H), 3.92-4.15 (m, 3 H), 4.54-4.67 (m, 1H), 6.46 (d, 1H), 6.58 (s, 2 H), 7.05 (m, s, 3 H), 7.60 (br s, 1 H), 7.94 (t, 1 H), 8.30 (d, 1 H), 8.72-8.83 (m, 2 H), 8.96 (d, 1 H), 9.30 (br s, 1 H), 10.64 (br s, 1 H), and 11.05 (s, 1 H); MS m/e 512 (MH+) (Scheme 36).
