Chlorosuccinimide → HCID 178494428, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.27 g of 7-guanidino-3-methoxyisocoumarin (1 mmole) was chlorinated with 0.15 g of N-chlorosuccinimide (1.1 mmole) in 5 ml DMF at r. t. overnight. The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness, and purified by silica gel column chromatography which is eluted with methylene chloride and methanol (5:1) to give 0.1 g of 7-guanidino-3-methoxy-4-chloroisocoumarin (yield 34%). One spot on TLC, Rf=0.75 (Butanol:acetic acid:pyridine:water=4:1:1:2); NMR spectrum is similar to 7-guanidino-3-methoxyisocoumarin except no peak at 6.1 ppm; mass spectrum (FAB+), m/e=268 (M+ -Cl). Anal. Calc. for C11H11N3O3Cl2. 1/2 H2O: C, 42.17; H, 3.83; N, 13.41; Cl, 22.68. Found: C, 42.65; H, 3.72; N, 13,28; Cl, 22.32.
