A mixture of tert-butyl (S)-4-(2-methyl-6-nitro-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]oxazol-2-ylmethyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylate prepared in Example 393 (1.7 g, 4.6 mmol), trifluoroacetic acid (10 ml) and methylene chloride (30 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in methanol (30 ml). To the solution, 4′-trifluoromethylbiphenyl-4-carboaldehyde (2.3 g, 9.19 mmol), sodium cyanotrihydroborate (580 mg, 9.23 mmol) and acetic acid (0.55 ml, 9.62 mmol) were added in this order followed by stirring at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. To the residue, a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution was added, and the solution was extracted with methylene chloride twice. The organic phases were combined, washed with a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and a saturated saline solution in this order, dried over magnesium sulfate and then filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (methylene chloride/methanol=50/1) to afford (S)-2-methyl-6-nitro-2-[4-(4′-trifluoromethylbiphenyl-4-ylmethyl)piperazin-1-ylmethyl]-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]oxazole (1.47 g, yield 63%) as a white powder.
