Reaction Steps

To a solution of (3R,5R,6S)-5-(3-chlorophenyl)-6-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-((2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl)-1-((S,E)-1-(ethylsulfonyl)pent-1-en-3-yl)-3-methylpiperidin-2-one (65.0 mg, 0.107 mmol; Example 205, Step B) in 1,2-dichloroethane (1.07 mL) at 25° C. was added Crabtree's catalyst (7.74 mg, 9.61 μmol). The reaction system (a hydrogenation bomb) was flushed with hydrogen gas 3×, pressurized with hydrogen at 3447.38 kilopascal, and the reaction was stirred at 25° C. for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite, washed with DCM, and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield the title compound as an off-white solid.
