1,1'-Carbonyldiimidazole → HCID 57508195, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2-(dipropylamino)-6-methylisonicotinic acid hydrochloride (approx. 0.4 mmol) in THF (3 mL) was added triethylamine (0.17 mL), followed by dichloromethane (2 mL) and then CDI (0.071 g, 0.44 mmol). After stirring for 1 h, a mixture of (2R,3S)-3-amino-4-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-1-[(3-ethylbenzyl)amino]butan-2-ol dihydrochloride (0.163 g, 0.400 mmol), triethylamine (0.11 mL), and dichloromethane (approx. 2 mL) was added to the CDI mixture. The mixture was allowed to stir overnight, after which an additional 0.12 mL of triethylamine and 0.045 g of (2R,3S)-3-amino-4-(3,5-difluorophenyl)-1-[(3-ethylbenzyl)amino]butan-2-ol dihydrochloride was added. After stirring for several more hours, the mixture was partitioned between dichloromethane and aq. sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer was dried with sodium sulfate, concentrated, and the residue was chromatographed on silica gel using MeOH-dichloromethane (5/95) to give 0.04 g of the title compound.
