Chloride → tert-butyl 6-amino-3-benzyloxy-10,11-dihydropyrazino[1',2':1,2]imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline-9(8H)-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

mCPBA (0.782 g of 77% purity, 3.49 mmol) was added to a solution of tert-butyl 3-benzyloxy-10,11-dihydropyrazino[1′,2′:1,2]imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline-9(8H)-carboxylate (1.0 g, 2.3 mmol) in chloroform (15 mL), and the reaction was stirred for 30 minutes. Ammonium hydroxide (5 mL), and the reaction was stirred for five minutes before the rapid addition of p-toluenesulfnyl chloride (0.4865 g, 2.55 mmol). The reaction was stirred overnight at ambient temperature. The organic layer was separated and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by normal phase prep HPLC on silica gel (eluting with 2 N ammonia in methanol/chloroform in a 42-minute gradient from 0:100 to 5:95) to provide 550 mg of tert-butyl 6-amino-3-benzyloxy-10,11-dihydropyrazino[1′,2′:1,2]imidazo[4,5-c]quinoline-9(8H)-carboxylate.
