Diisopropylethylamine → HCID 59830728, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2,6-dichloronicotinoyl chloride (25.2 g, 119.60 mmol) in DCM (100 mL) was added dropwise to a stirred suspension of 4-aminoadamantan-1-ol (20.00 g, 119.6 mmol) and N-Ethyldiisopropylamine (24.83 mL, 143.52 mmol) in THF (400 mL) at 20° C., over a period of 30 minutes under nitrogen. The resulting suspension was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (500 mL), and washed sequentially with water (100 mL) and saturated brine (50 mL). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated to afford the crude product. The crude product was purified by flash silica chromatography, elution gradient 0 to 100% EtOAc in DCM. Pure fractions were evaporated to dryness to afford 2,6-dichloro-N-(5-hydroxyadamantan-2-yl)nicotinamide (20.65 g, 51%) as a white solid.
