Hydrochloric Acid → (S)-8-chloro-1-(5-diethylaminomethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepin-9-one hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.84 g (1.96 mmol) of (S)-8-chloro-1-(5-diethylaminomethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepin-9-one in 10 ml of ethanol was treated with 0.41 ml (1.96 mmol) of 4.78N ethanolic hydrochloric acid. After stirring at room temperature for 10 minutes the solution obtained was completely freed from the solvents. The residue was recrystallized from ethanol/ether. There was obtained 0.70 g (77%) of (S)-8-chloro-1-(5-diethylaminomethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-11,12,13,13a-tetrahydro-9H-imidazo[1,5-a]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepin-9-one hydrochloride (1:1) as white crystals; m.p. 205°-207° and [α]D20 =+25.2° (MeOH, c=1%).
