4.2.3. Synthesis of ethyl [(4S)-1(R,S)-[4-(1,4-dioxa-8-
azaspiro[4.5]dec-8-yl)phenyl]-4-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-
2H-isoindol-2-yl)-3-oxo-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-2H-2-benz-
azepin-2-yl]acetate (10c, entry 6, Table 1). An oven dried
25 mL round-bottomed flask was charged with Pd2dba3
(9.2 mg, 0.010 mmol, 5 mol %) and 2-(di-tert-butylphosphi-
no)biphenyl (12.0 mg, 0.040 mmol, 20 mol %). The flask
was flushed with N2 and subsequently toluene (6 mL)
was added. This solution was stirred for 10 min at rt.
During these 10 min, 9 (109.5 mg, 0.20 mmol), 1,4-dioxa-
8-azaspiro[4,5]decane (0.030 mL, 0.24 mmol, 1.2 equiv),
and K3PO4 (85 mg, 0.4 mmol, 2 equiv) were weighed into
another 25 mL flask. This flask was also flushed with N2
and 3 mL of the Pd(0)/ligand solution (0.005 mmol Pd2dba3
and 0.010 mmol 2-(di-tert-butylphosphino)biphenyl) was
added. The reaction mixture was heated (oil bath tempera-
ture: 100 ꢀC) and magnetically stirred for 20 h under N2
atmosphere. After evaporation of the solvent, the crude prod-
uct was dissolved in a minimum amount of acetonitrile/
water (1.2:1), filtered, and purified by preparative HPLC.
The desired product 10c (65.7 mg, 0.11 mmol, 54%) was ob-
tained as a mixture of diastereoisomers in the form of a white
solid. TLC: Rf 0.33 (EtOAc/hexanes 1:1), mp 128.7–

prop-2-enoate (13, entry 3, Table 2). An oven dried 25 mL
round-bottomed flask was charged with 9 (109.5 mg,
0.20 mmol), NaHCO3 (33.6 mg, 0.40 mmol, 2 equiv), and
ethyl acrylate (0.050 mL, 0.4 mmol, 2 equiv). The flask
was flushed with Ar and DMF (3 mL) was added. Subse-
quently, addition of Pd(PPh3)4 (70 mg, 0.06 mmol,
30 mol %) to the flask was followed by stirring the reaction
mixture for 24 h at 130 ꢀC (oil bath temperature). After
evaporation of the solvent, the crude product was dissolved
in a minimum amount of acetonitrile/water (1.2:1), filtered,
and purified by preparative HPLC. The desired product
(74.7 mg, 0.13 mmol, 66%) was obtained as a mixture of
