2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione → 4-(4-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl)-6-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-5-phenyl-3,4-dihydropyridin-2(1H)-one

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)-2-phenylethanone (Intermediate 4) (400 mg, 2.0 mmol), 4-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)benzaldehyde (420 mg, 2.4 mmol), meldrum's acid (345 mg, 2.4 mmol) and AcONH4 (185 mg, 2.4 mmol) in AcOH (4 mL) was refluxed under N2 overnight. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by prep-HPLC (0.1% TFA as additive) to give Compound 8 (25 mg, 3%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6 400 MHz): δ 9.46 (brs, 1H), 7.98 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 2H), 7.58-7.48 (m, 3H), 7.25-7.16 (m, 3H), 7.15 (d, J=6.4 Hz, 2H), 6.91 (s, 1H), 4.00 (d, J=5.2 Hz, 1H), 3.72 (s, 3H), 3.20 (dd, J=16.0 Hz, 7.6 Hz, 1H), 2.50-2.45 (m, 1H). MS (ESI): m/z 398.0 [M+1]+.
