Methyl 5-amino-1,1a,2,7b-tetrahydrocyclopropa[c]chromene-4-carboxylate → methyl (1aRS,7bSR)-5-{4-fluoro-2-[1-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetyl)azetidin-3-yl]benzene-sulfonylamino}-1,1a,2,7b-tetrahydrocyclopropa[c]chromene-4-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of methyl 4-fluoro-2-[1-(2,2,2-trifluoroacetyl)azetidin-3-yl]benzenesulfonyl chloride (Intermediate 89, 0.192 g) and methyl (1aRS,7bSR)-5-amino-1,1a,2,7b-tetrahydrocyclopropa-[c]chromene-4-carboxylate (Intermediate 42, 0.122 g) in pyridine (1 mL) and DCM (3 mL) was left to stand at room temperature for 18 hours. The mixture was diluted with DCM, washed with 1M hydrochloric acid and filtered through a phase separator. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was purified by chromatography on silica, eluting with a mixture of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane with a gradient of 0-30% to give methyl (1aRS,7bSR)-5-{4-fluoro-2-[1-(2,2,2-trifluoro-acetyl)azetidin-3-yl]benzenesulfonylamino}-1,1a,2,7b-tetrahydrocyclopropa-[c]chromene-4-carboxylate (0.294 g) as a colourless gum.
