Dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal → HCID 13281184, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The free base 4[2-(imidazol-1-yl)ethyl]piperidine (5.1 g, 28.7 mM) and dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (23 ml) was heated at 100° C. for 6 hours. Removal of the excess of dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal gave 4-[2-(imidazol-1-yl)ethyl]-1-piperidine carboxaldehyde dimethylacetal (6.32 g, 87%) which was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (27 ml) and added to the mixture of 6-aminopenicillanic acid (5.6 g, 258 mM) and diisopropylethylamine (3.41 ml) in CH2Cl2 (100 ml) at 0° C. The reaction was stirred at 0° C. for 1 hr. and room temperature for 3 hrs. The solvent was then removed and water (100 ml) was added. After being washed with ethylacetate, the aqueous solution, acidified to pH 3, was purified on Sephadex LH 20 columns to give [2S-(2alpha,5alpha,6-beta)]-6-[[[4 -[2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl]-1-piperidinyl]methylene]amino]-3,3-dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-2-carboxylic acid hydrate hydrochloride (1.8 g, 16% yield).
