Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 5-aminofuran-2-carboxylate (1.0 g) and pyridine (1.2 mL) in methylene chloride (6.0 mL) is added dropwise cyclopropanecarbonyl chloride (0.78 mL) under ice-cooling and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. To the reaction mixture is added a saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and the mixture is extracted with chloroform. The extract is dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is purified by column chromatography on silica gel (Solvent; n-hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1) to give methyl 5-[(cyclopropylcarbonyl)amino]furan-2-carboxylate (0.82 g, yield; 56%) as colorless crystals.
