Reaction Steps

A mixture of trans-racemic-4-[2-(2-isopropyl-2H-[1,2,4]triazol-3-yl)-4,5-dihydro-6-oxa-1,3a-diaza-benzo[e]azulen-8-yl]-piperidin-3-ol hydrochloride (199 mg, 0.46 mmol), 2-bromo-2-methyl-N-methyl propionamide (83 mg, 0.46 mmol), NaOH (2 mL, 50% aqueous solution), TBAB (16 mg, 0.05 mmol) and DCM (2.5 mL) was stirred vigorously at RT for 7.5 h. The phases were separated and the aqueous layer extracted three times with 10% methanol in DCM, the combined organic extracts washed with brine then dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was subjected to flash chromatography (SiO2, gradient 0 to 10% methanol in DCM) to give 330 (84 mg, 37%). LCMS: RT=2.54 min, [M+H]+=494. 1H NMR 400 MHz (CDCl3) δ: 8.44 (1H, d, J=8.23 Hz), 7.87 (1H, s), 7.48 (1H, s), 7.17 (1H, br), 7.08 (1H, m), 6.86 (1H, s), 6.03-6.01 (1H, m), 4.77-4.07 (4H, m), 3.82 (1H, br), 3.17 (1H, m), 2.86 (3H, d, J=4.98 Hz), 2.85 (2H, m), 2.46 (1H, m), 2.27 (1H, m), 2.18 (1H, m), 1.90 (1H, m), 1.70 (1H, m), 1.61 (6H, m), 1.27 (6H, d, J=10.69 Hz)
