Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (3S,5R,6S)-3-allyl-5-(3-chlorophenyl)-6-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)-3-methylpiperidin-2-one (77 mg, 0.205 mmol, Example 124, Step C) in DMF (0.3 mL) was added slowly 9.5 mg (0.24 mmol) of a dispersion of 60% sodium hydride in mineral oil followed by tert-butyl 2-bromobutanoate (92 mg, 0.410 mmol). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature overnight, quenched with MeOH/HOAc, was diluted with EtOAc and water and extracted to EtOAc. The organics were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and the filtrate was concentrated. Purification by reversed phase preparatory HPLC (Sunfire™ Prep C18 OBD 10 μm column (Waters, Milford, Mass.) (eluent: 70% acetonitrile, water, 0.1% TFA) provided the title compound, as well as its stereoisomer, (R)-tert-butyl 2-((3S,5R,6S)-3-allyl-5-(3-chlorophenyl)-6-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)-3-methyl-2-oxopiperidin-1-yl)butanoate.
