(Diethylamino)sulfur trifluoride → HCID 13125992, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred suspension of 4.2 g (0.012 mole) of 7-bromo-5-(2-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-3-hydroxy-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one in 200 ml methylene chloride was cooled to -70°, and 5 ml (0.04 mole) of diethylaminosulfur trifluoride was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to -10°, and held at this temperature until most of the solid had dissolved. The reaction mixture was poured into ice-water and stirred vigorously. The organic layer was separated, washed with water, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from benzene-hexane to give 3.12 g of 3-fluoro-7-bromo-5-(2-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one as light yellow crystals: mp 195°-197° (dec.); 19F nmr (DMSO-d6) δ -113.0 ppm (m, 1F) and -162.1 ppm (d, J=56 Hz, 1F), 1H nmr (DMSO-d6) δ 5.88 ppm (d, J=56 Hz, 1H), 7.2-7.9 ppm (m, 7H), 11.2 ppm (NH).
