Participants

Reaction Steps

Tert-butyl (S)-[1-(2-methyl-6-nitro-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]oxazol-2-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl]-N-[2-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)ethyl]carbamate prepared in Example 284 (0.196 g, 0.354 mmol) was dissolved in methylene chloride (2 ml). To the solution, trifluoroacetic acid (1 ml) was added followed by stirring at room temperature for 4 hours. To the reaction mixture, a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution was added, and the solution was extracted with methylene chloride twice. The organic phases were combined, dried over sodium sulfate and then filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (methylene chloride/ethyl acetate=10/1) and treated with isopropyl ether to afford (S)-N-[1-(2-methyl-6-nitro-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]oxazol-2-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl]-2-(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)ethylamine (0.020 g, yield 12%) as a light yellow powder.
