4-(Chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride → HCID 59737342, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-(chloromethyl)benzoyl chloride (2 g, 10.58 mmol) was dissolved in THF (20 mL) and a solution of tert-butyl [2-amino-4-(2-thienyl)phenyl]carbamate (3.38 g, 11.64 mmol) and DIPEA (2.033 mL, 11.64 mmol) in THF (50 mL) was added dropwise at room temperature. After stirring for 1 hour, saturated NaHCO3 was added and the products extracted into EtOAc (×2). The combined organic extracts were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was triturated in EtOAc to give tert-butyl [2-{[4-(chloromethyl)benzoyl]amino}-4-(2-thienyl)phenyl]carbamate as a beige powder.
