Yield:1138245-13-2 43%

Reaction Conditions:

Stage #1:tert-butyl [(1R,5S,6S)-6-(tert-butoxycarbonylamino)methyl-3-ethylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-3-en-6-yl]acetate with hydrogenchloride in water;ethyl acetate at 20; for 1 h;
Stage #2: with triethylamine in dichloromethane

Steps:

21.c (21-c)
(21-c) [(1R,5S,6S)-6-aminomethyl-3-ethylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-3-en-6-yl]acetic acid A 4 N hydrochloric acid-ethyl acetate solution (100 mL) was added to tert-butyl (1R,5S,6S)-[6-(tert-butoxycarbonylaminomethyl)-3-ethylbicyclo[3.2.0]hept-3-en-6-yl]acetate (9.82 g, 23.7 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane. To the solution, triethylamine was added dropwise, and the resulting powder was collected by filtration, then washed with dichloromethane, and then dried to obtain 4.02 g of a white powder. This powder was washed with ethanol and ethyl acetate to obtain the title compound of interest as a white powder (2.14 g, 43%).
