Participants

Reaction Steps

A slurry containing of the product from Example 63A (0.2 g, 0.763 mmole) and cesium carbonate (0.25 g, 0.763 mmole) in dimethylformamide (5 ml) was treated with benzyl bromide (0.091 ml, 0.763 mmole) and the resulting slurry was stirred 18 hours at room temperature. Afterwards ice water (50 mL) was added to the solution and to the resultant slurry was added ethyl acetate (50 ml). The layers were separated and the organic layer was washed with 10% sodium bicarbonate and 10% sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The drying agent was filtered and solvent was removed under vacuum leaving a yellow solid as the title compound (0.24 g, 89%).
