Malic Acid → O-[4-(hexadecylamino)benzoyl]malic acid

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a warm solution of N-carbobenzyloxy-4-(hexadecylamino)benzoyl chloride and 1.3 g. (1 eq) triethylamine in 100 ml. ether is treated with 2 g. (14.9 m moles) malic acid. An immediate precipitate forms, but the mixture is refluxed for one hour and filtered while hot. The solid is washed several times with hot ether, then the ether is evaporated to yield a white solid. The product is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (100 ml.) and hydrogenated over 600 mg. 10% Pd(C) at 50 psi until hydrogen uptake stops. The catalyst is filtered, the solution is evaporated, and the residue is crystallized from acetic acid to yield the title compound as a tan, crystalline mass.
