Hydrazine hydrate (1:1) → 2-((3R,5R,6S)-5-(3-Chlorophenyl)-6-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(cyclopropylmethyl)-2-oxopiperidin-3-yl)acetohydrazide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 120 mg (0.27 mmol) of methyl 2-((3R,5R,6S)-5-(3-chlorophenyl)-6-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(cyclopropylmethyl)-2-oxopiperidin-3-yl)acetate (Example 47) in EtOH was added hydrazine, monohydrate (135 μl, 2688 μmol). After being refluxed for 14 h, the reaction was concentrated, diluted (H2O) and extracted (2×EtOAc). The combined organic layers were washed with sat. aq. NaCl solution, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification of the residue by flash chromatography on silica gel (5% MeOH/CH2Cl2, gradient elution) provided the title compound as a white solid.
