Reaktionsschritte

To a reaction flask were added 6.53 mmol of dihydrochloride of 3-(3-fluoro-4-morpholinylphenyl-5-aminomethyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one (5a), 100 ml of dichloromethane and 2.95 ml (21.2 mmol) of triethylamine. Then 0.8 ml (8.45 mmol) of acetic anhydride was added while being stirred in an ice-bath. The mixture was then allowed to react at room temperature for 2 hours before being washed successively with 5% aqueous NaOH solution and saturated aqueous NaCl solution. The organic layer was then dried by anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered, and subsequently put under reduced pressure for solvent removal. The residue was then subjected to recrystallization using ethyl acetate to give white needle crystals at a yield of 85%, HR-TOF-MS (+Q) m/z: 338.1520 (Calculated [C16H20FN3O4+H]+: 338.1516).
