Acetic Acid → HCID 18923584, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 8-[3-(N-glycyl-N-methylamino)-2,6-dichlorobenzyloxy]-3-bromo-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (100 mg), acetic acid (0.5 ml) and water (1.0 ml) was added an aqueous solution (1 ml) of sodium cyanate (138 mg) at 40° C. The mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 1 hour and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was partitioned into dichloromethane and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate and the organic layer was separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with dichloromethane twice. The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by preparative thin-layer chromatography (dichloromethane:methanol=10:1, V/V) followed by crystallization from ethyl acetate-diethyl ether to give 3-bromo-8-[2,6-dichloro-3-[N-methyl-N-(ureidoacetyl)amino]benzyloxy]-2-methylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridine (72 mg) as crystals.
