The condensation of 3-(3-isopropoxy-4-methoxyphenyl)propionic acid (I) with the chiral adjuvant 4(S)-benzyloxazolidin-2-one (II) by means of n-BuLi in THF gives the amide (III), which is treated with triethylsilyl azide and KHMDS in THF to afford the chiral alpha-azido compound (IV). Elimination of the oxazolidin group methoxymagnesium bromide in methanol yields the methyl ester (V), which is reduced with H2 over Pd/C in methanol giving the alpha-aminoester (VI). The condensation of (VI) with N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-4-methoxy-3-nitro-L-phenylalanine (VII) by means of EDC and HOBT in dichloromethane provides the dipeptide (VIII), which is des-isopropylated with BCl3 in dichloromethane affording the phenolic compound (IX). The cyclization of (IX) with K2CO3 in DMSO gives the cyclic dipeptide (X), which is reduced with H2 over Pd/C in methanol and treated with H3PO2 and NaNO2 in order to eliminate the activating nitro group to give (XI). The methylation of (XI) with NaH and methyl iodide affords (XII), which is deprotected with TFA providing (XIII) with a free methylamino group.
