Sodium Bicarbonate → 2-(4-methoxy-7-morpholin-4-yl-benzothiazol-2-yl)-4,5,7,8-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-d]azepine-6-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 0.15 g 4-[(4-methoxy-7-morpholin-4-yl-benzothiazole-2-carbonyl)-amino]-5-oxo-azepane-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester and 0.46 g ammonium acetate was melted at 120° C. for 3 hours and, after cooling to room temperature, suspended in a 1:1 mixture of water and saturated aqueous sodiumbicarbonate. Extraction with dichloromethane and chromatography on silicagel with dichloromethane/methanol 98:2 gave 0.10 g (72%) 2-(4-methoxy-7-morpholin-4-yl-benzothiazol-2-yl)-4,5,7,8-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-d]azepine-6-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as yellow solid; M.p.: 142–144° C.; MS (ISP): m/e=486 (M+H+).
