Dimethylamine → HCID 10152952, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of the compound of Example 547D (0.825 g, 1.34 mmol) in 3 mL of ethanol was added 5 mL of 4.07M dimethylamine in ethanol; the resultant solution was heated at reflux for 75 min. Solvents were removed in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel, eluting with 9:1 dichloromethane/methanol. The resultant material was taken up in 5 mL of 1.4N NaOH in 5:1 ethanol/water and stirred at ambient temperature for 14 hrs. Solvents were removed in vacuo; the residue was taken up in water, then adjusted to pH 6-7 with 1M HCl (~7 mL required). The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×); the aqueous layer was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was washed 3× with acetonitrile; the combined washes were filtered through Celite and concentrated to give 596 mg of a white foam.
