Diisopropylethylamine → N-[(3S,5S,6R)-6-Methyl-2-oxo-5-phenyl-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)piperidin-3-yl]-2'-oxo-1',2'-dihydro-3H-spiro[1-benzofuran-2,3'-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine]-5-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

(Benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (90 mg, 0.20 mmol) is added to a solution of 2′-oxo-1′,2′-dihydro-3H-spiro[benzofuran-2,3′-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine]-5-carboxylic acid (described in Intermediate 2) (48 mg, 0.17 mmol), (3S,5S,6R)-3-amino-6-methyl-5-phenyl-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)piperidin-2-one hydrochloride (described in Intermediate 1, 54 mg, 0.17 mmol), and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.15 mL, 0.84 mmol) in DMF (3 mL), and the resulting mixture is stirred at ambient temperature for 3 h. The reaction mixture is then partitioned between saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (20 mL) and ethyl actetate (3×20 mL). The combined organic layers are washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is purified by flash column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with a gradient of CH2Cl2:MeOH—100:0 to 90:10, to afford the title compound as a mixture of diastereomers.
