Reaction Steps
The title compound was prepared following a similar procedure as described for the synthesis of 4-((1R,3aS,5aR,5bR,7aR,11aS,11bR,13aR,13bR)-5a,5b,8,8,11a-pentamethyl-1-(prop-1-en-2-yl)-3a-(2-(pyridin-3-ylamino)ethylamino)-2,3,3a,4,5,5a,5b,6,7,7a,8,11,11a,11b,12,13,13a,13b-octadecahydro-1H-cyclopenta[a]chrysen-9-yl)benzoic acid, except 2-bromo-1-methyl-1H-imidazole (0.015 g, 8.88 μL, 0.091 mmol) was used in place of 3-bromopyridine. Also, addition of LiOH, water and methanol were unnecessary for this example, as the ester hydrolysis occurred spontaneously during the course of the amination reaction. The product was isolated after reverse phase preparative HPLC purification using Prep HPLC Method 8 as a beige solid (38.1 mg, 51.5% yield) bis TFA salt.
