Dipropylamine → (S)-8-chloro-1-(5-dipropylaminomethyl-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

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 1.85 g (4.74 mmol) of (S)-8-chloro-1-(5-chloromethyl-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 30 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide was treated with 2.40 g (23.7 mmol) of dipropylamine. After stirring at room temperature for 16 hrs. the solution obtained was completely freed from the solvents. The residue was chromatographed over silica gel with methylene chloride/methanol 19:1 as the eluent. There were obtained 2.03 g (94%) of (S)-8-chloro-1-(5-dipropylaminomethyl-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 as a pale yellow oil; [α]D20 =+29.3° (MeOH, c=1%).
