Hydrochloric Acid → Dimethyl-carbamic acid 2-aminomethyl-5-fluoro-phenyl ester hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of intermediate 132, dimethyl-carbamic acid 2-cyano-5-fluoro-phenyl ester, (340 mg, 1.63 mmol) in ethyl acetate (20 mL) and ethanol (20 mL), was added conc.HCl (0.4 mL) and 10% Pd—C (100 mg) and the mixture hydrogenated in a Parr Shaker at 55 psi of hydrogen for 20 hrs. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite, and the filtrate concentrated in vacuo to give an oil which was partitioned between ethyl acetate (10 mL) and water (10 mL). After separation, the aqueous phase was washed with additional ethyl acetate (5 mL). The combined extracts were concentrated in vacuo to dryness. The residual oil was triturated with ether to provide 145 mg (Yield 38%) of the title compound, as a tan powder: 1H NMR (CD3OD, 500 MHz) δ ppm: 3.06 (3H, s, NMe), 3.21 (3H, s, NMe), 4.11 (2H, s, NCH2), 7.13 (2H, m, Ar—Hs), 7.60 (1H, m, Ar—H); 13C NMR (CD3OD, 125.77 Hz) δ ppm: 36.03, 36.25 37.58, 110.79, 110.99, 113.26, 113.43, 122.32, 132.18, 132.25, 151.55, 154.72, 162.69, 164.67.
