Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (+/−)-2-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)-6-methyl-4-(3-nitropyridin-4-yl)cyclohex-3-enyl methanesulfonate (1.0 equiv.) in pyridine (0.2 M) was heated in the microwave at 110° C. for 10 min. The orange reaction was then concentrated under vacuo, the crude was dissolved in ethyl acetate and water, the organic phase was dried with sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuo. The crude material was dissolved in DCM (0.2 M), triethylamine (1.8 equiv.) was added, followed by Boc2O (1.2 equiv.). The reaction was stirred for 40 min, then concentrated to dryness. The crude material was purified via silica gel column chromatography eluting with hexane and ethyl acetate (1:1) to afford (+/−)-tert-butyl 7-methyl-5-(3-nitropyridin-4-yl)-2-oxo-3a,6,7,7a-tetrahydrobenzo[d]oxazole-3(2H)-carboxylate as a white foam in 66% yield. LC/MS=376.0 (M+H), LC: 3.424 min.
