Sodium Iodide → (S)-tert-butyl 5-((6-bromo-2-methoxynaphthalen-1-yl)methyl)-4-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,4]oxazepin-3-ylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (S)-tert-butyl 4-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,4]oxazepin-3-ylcarbamate (1.412 g, 5.07 mmol), 6-bromo-1-(chloromethyl)-2-methoxynaphthalene (1.59 g, 5.58 mmol), Cs2CO3 (1.98 g, 6.09 mmol), and NaI (913 mg, 6.09 mmol) in DMF (16.9 mL) was stirred at RT for 22 h, diluted with H2O and extracted with EtOAc. The combined extracts were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and. The filtrate was concentrated to give a residue that was purified by silica gel chromatography to give (S)-tert-butyl 5-((6-bromo-2-methoxynaphthalen-1-yl)methyl)-4-oxo-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,4]oxazepin-3-ylcarbamate (1.804 g, 67%) as an off-white solid.
