Pyridine → (E)-2(R)-[1(S)-[(tetrahydro-2(RS)-pyranyloxy)carbamoyl]-4-phenyl-3-butenyl]-2'-isobutyl-4-methyl-2'-(2-nitrobenzylsulphonyl)valerohydrazide

Reaction Steps

A solution of 0.689 g of (E)-2(R)-[1(S)-[(tetrahydro-2(RS) -pyranyloxy)carbamoyl]-4-phenyl-3-butenyl]-2′-isobutyl-4-methylvalerohydrazide in 8 ml of dichloromethane was treated with 0.236 g of 2-nitro-α-toluenesulphonyl chloride and 0.152 ml of pyridine at room temperature and under a nitrogen atmosphere. The mixture was stirred for 2 hours and evaporated. The residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate and washed in sequence with water, 5% aqueous citric acid, water, 5% aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate and saturated aqueous sodium chloride and then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate. Evaporation and trituration of the residue with diethyl ether gave 0.72 g of (E)-2(R)-[1(S)-[(tetrahydro-2(RS)-pyranyloxy)carbamoyl]-4-phenyl-3-butenyl]-2′-isobutyl-4-methyl-2′-(2-nitrobenzylsulphonyl)valerohydrazide in the form of a white solid.
