摘要
The synthesis of multigram quantities of small molecule PCSK9 inhibitor (R,S)-3 is described. The route features a safe, multikilogram method to prepare 5-(4-iodo-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2H-tetrazole (10). A three-component dynamic kinetic resolution between tetrazole 10, acetaldehyde, and isobutyric anhydride was catalyzed by a chiral DMAP catalyst to afford enantiomerically enriched hemiaminal ester (S)-12 on multikilogram scale. Magnesiation, transmetalation, and Negishi coupling provided access to Boc-intermediate (R,S)-13, which was deprotected to provide (R,S)-3 in multigram quantities.
