A solution of ketone 10 (8.5 g, 24.8 mmol) in N,N-dimethylfor-
mamide dimethyl acetal (6.6 mL, 49.5 mmol) was heated at 100
°C for 6 h. The solution was cooled to 80 °C, and 1-PrOH (25
mL), guanidine‚HCl (3.55 g, 37.1 mmol), and NaOMe (25% w/w
in MeOH, 8.5 mL, 37.1 mmol) were added. After 17 h, the
solution was cooled to room temperature, diluted with 200 mL
of EtOAc, and washed with a 10% NaOH solution (2 × 100 mL).
The organics were washed with 150 mL of 3 N HCl, and the
separated aqueous layer was made basic with 50% NaOH to pH
11-12. The aqueous layer was extracted with TBME (200 mL)
and concentrated to 100 mL in vacuo. The solution was diluted
with 50 mL of hexane, and after 30 min the crystals that formed
were filtered to give 7.0 g (72%) of the title compound: mp )

solution of pyruvaldehyde (40% w/w solution in water, 1.34 mL,
8.74 mmol) in 12 mL of DMSO at room temperature was added
2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-aminopiperidine (1.50 mL, 8.74 mmol).
After 10 min, isonitrile 4 (1.69 g, 5.83 mmol) and K2CO3 (0.81
g, 5.85 mmol) were added. After 16 h, the solution was diluted
with 100 mL of EtOAc and washed with 2 × 75 mL of 3 N HCl.
The aqueous layers were combined and made basic with excess
solid K2CO3 to pH 10-11. The aqueous layer was transferred
to a separatory funnel and extracted with 2 × 100 mL of EtOAc.
The combined organics were washed with 3 × 50 mL of water
and concentrated in vacuo to give 10 as a brown oil. This
material was recrystallized from CHCl3/hexanes to give 10 (1.61
g, 80%) whose spectra were identical to those listed for 10 above.

mamide dimethyl acetal (0.43 mL, 3.28 mmol) were dissolved
in 10 mL of toluene and heated at 110 °C for 20 h. The solution
was cooled to room temperature, and the solvents were removed
under vacuum. The residue was eluted through a short plug of
silica gel with EtOAc/MeOH (1:1) and concentrated to give the
title compound (0.65 g 76%) as a waxy solid: IR (neat) 3300,

water, 5.82 mL, 38.04 mmol) in 70 mL of DMSO at room
temperature was added 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-aminopiperidine
(6.52 mL, 38.04 mmol). After 15-20 min, isonitrile 4 (10 g, 34.6
mmol) and K2CO3 (5.02 g, 36.3 mmol) were added. After 19 h,
30 mL of toluene was added and the solution was heated at 65
°C while the toluene/water azeotrope was removed under
vacuum. The toluene addition/distillation was repeated two
times more. N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DM-
FDMA) (9.2 mL, 69.2 mmol) was added, and the solution was
heated at 100 °C for 8-10 h. Guanidine‚HCl (6.61 g, 69.2 mmol)
and K2CO3 (9.56 g, 69.2 mmol) were added, and the resulting
solution was heated at 100 °C for 6-7 h. After being cooled to
room temperature, the solution was filtered through a pad of
Celite, diluted with 250 mL of EtOAc, and washed with 4 × 200
mL of 3 N HCl. The aqueous layers were combined and made
basic with solid KOH to pH ) 12. The aqueous layer was
transferred to a separatory funnel and extracted with EtOAc (3
× 200 mL). The combined organics were washed with 3 × 100
mL of a 3 N KOH solution and 50 mL of brine, dried over Na2-
SO4 and activated charcoal, filtered through Celite, and con-
centrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in 50 mL of
MeOH, and the crystals that formed were filtered and washed
with 100 mL of EtOAc to yield the title compound (4.89 g, 36%)
as a tan solid whose spectra matched those listed above.
