Tetrabutylammonium Fluoride → HCID 67999236, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of tetrabutylammonium fluoride, (1.0 M in THF, 0.453 mL, 0.453 mmol) was added to a solution of 2-((3R,5R,6S)-1-((S)-2-(tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxy)-1-cyclopropylethyl)-5-(3-chlorophenyl)-6-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-methyl-2-oxopiperidin-3-yl)acetic acid (Example 251, Step E, 108 mg, 0.151 mmol) in THF (4 ml) and the reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 20 hours. Analysis by LC-MS showed incomplete reaction so an extra 0.225 ml of tetrabutylammonium fluoride solution was added and the reaction was stirred for another 26 hours. The mixture was diluted in ethyl acetate then washed with water and sat. aq. NaCl solution. The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. Purification by RP-HPLC (Sunfire Prep C18 OBD 10 μm column, gradient elution of 10% MeCN in water to 80% MeCN in water over a 30 min period, where both solvents contain 0.1% TFA) afforded the title compound as a solid.
