Triethylamine → 7-chloro-2-[(S)-2-([t-butyldimethylsilyloxy]methyl)pyrrolidine-1-carbonyl]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 7-chloro-2-[(S)-2-(hydroxymethyl)pyrrolidine-1-carbonyl]thieno[3,2-b]pyridine 3a (4.50 g, 15 mmole) were added t-butyldimethylchlorosilane (3.18 g, 21 mmole) and triethylamine (3.4 ml, 2.47 g, 24 mmole). The resultant reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperaure for 16 hours. The crude reaction mixture was poured into water (150 ml) and extracted with CH2Cl2 (150 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (150 ml), dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated, in vacuo, to give 7.8 g of an orange syrup, which was purified by silica gel chromatography. Elution with Et2O:hexane (67:33) and evaporation of the appropriate fractions gave 5.73 g (92%) of an off-white solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ8.72 (1H, d, J=5.0 Hz), 8.07 (1H, s), 7.68 (1 H, d, J=5.0 Hz), 4.30-4.15 (1H, m), 3.94-3.67 (4H, m), 2.12-1.81 (4H, m), 0.85 (9H, s), 0.03 (3H, s), 0.00 (3H, s). Anal. Calcd. for C19H27N2O2SClSi: C, 55.52; H, 6.62; N, 6.82; S, 7.80; Cl, 8.63. Found: C, 55.49; H, 6.46; N, 6.92; S, 7.80; Cl, 8.88.
