Diisopropylethylamine → 1-(4-((2-Nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-3-(tosyloxy)propan-2-yl acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-nitro-1-(prop-2-ynyl)-1H-imidazole (0.2 gm, 1.32 mmol) and 1-azido-3-(tosyloxy)propan-2-yl acetate (0.41 gm, 1.32 mmol) in THF (2.5 mL), was treated with CuI (0.025 gm, 0.132 mmol) and DIPEA (0.3 mL, 1.46 mmol) at room temperature. After stirring the reaction mixture for overnight, silica was added, solvent evaporated under reduced pressure and purified by chromatography on silica gel (MeOH/CH2Cl2, 1/10) to give the 1-(4-((2-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-3-(tosyloxy)propan-2-yl acetate (0.5 gm, 81%) as white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 400 MHz) δ: 7.76-7.78 (m, 3H), 7.35-7.39 (m, 3H), 7.15 (br, 1H), 5.68 (d, J=5.6 Hz, 2H), 5.27-5.32 (m, 1H), 4.56-4.67 (m, 2H), 4.19 (dd, J=4.0, 11.2 Hz, 1H), 4.08 (dd, J=4.0, 11.2 Hz, 1H), 2.46 (s, 3H), 1.97 (s, 3H); Mass Spec (lo-res): Calc'd for C18H20N6O7S: 464.11; found: 465.1 (M+H+).
