Ammonium Chloride → HCID 72192936, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of compound 3 (0.075 g, 0.24 mmol, 1.0 equiv) in methanol (3 mL) was added zinc powder (0.0800 g, 1.22 mmol, 5.00 equiv) followed by ammonium chloride solution (0.065 g, 1.2 mmol, 5.0 equiv) in water (1 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 4 h. After consumption of the starting material (by TLC), the reaction mixture was diluted with DCM (10 mL), water (10 mL) and filtered through a pad of celite. The organic layer was separated from filtrate and the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (2×10 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, concentrated under vacuum to give crude; which was purified by silica gel column chromatography (EtOAc/Hexane, 1:4) to afford compound 2A (0.050 g, 71%) as an off-white solid. TLC: 40% EtOAc/Hexane (Rf: 0.20); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.32-7.29 (m, 2H), 7.04 (t, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 5.84 (d, J=9.6 Hz, 1H), 5.78 (s, 1H), 4.25-4.18 (m, 4H), 4.04-3.96 (m, 3H), 1.30 (t, J=6.8 Hz, 3H); LC-MS: m/z=322 (M++1) at RT 3.38 (99.0% purity); UPLC purity: 99.5%.
