Participants

Reaction Steps

The mixture of diastereomers of (S)-2-((2R,3R)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(5-chloropyridin-3-yl)-3-hydroxypropyl)-N-((S)-1-hydroxybutan-2-yl)-2-methylpent-4-enamide and (R)-2-((2S,3S)-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-(5-chloropyridin-3-yl)-3-hydroxypropyl)-N-((S)-1-hydroxybutan-2-yl)-2-methylpent-4-enamide (Example 400, Step G, 6.34 g,) was combined in DCM (68 ml) and triethylamine (13.3 ml, 95 mmol). After cooling in an ice bath, trimethylamine hydrochloride (1.953 g, 20.43 mmol) was added. 4-Methylbenzenesulfonic anhydride (17.78 g, 54.5 mmol) was added slowly as a solid, keeping the temperature below 10° C. The brownish colored solution was allowed to slowly warm to room temperature, and then stirred over night. The next day more trimethyl amine hydrochloride (0.271 mg, 2.91 mmol) was added and the solution was stirred for another day. The reaction was quenched with ice water. The layers were partitioned and the aqueous layer was washed with DCM. The combined organics were dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to provide a brown oil. The oil was dissolved in MeCN (100 ml) and then heated to 60° C. for 4 hours. The solution was concentrated and the residue dissolved in 100 ml of DCM. To this was added 100 ml of sat. NaHCO3 and the biphasic solution was stirred at rt. for 5 days. The solution was partitioned and the aqueous layer was washed with DCM. The organics were dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The product was purified by silica gel chromatography to give (3S,5R,6S)-3-allyl-6-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-(5-chloropyridin-3-yl)-1-((S)-1-hydroxybutan-2-yl)-3-methylpiperidin-2-one as the second eluting diastereomer.
