Sodium Azide → 7-(1-azidoethyl)-6-bromo-5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-bromo-7-(1-bromoethyl)-5H-[1,3]thiazolo[3,2-a]pyrimidin-5-one (3.7 g, 11 mmol) and sodium azide (1.4 g, 22 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (30 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hour. After diluted with ethyl acetate, the mixture was washed with water, dried over Na2SO4, concentrated and purified on silica gel (0-60% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to give the desired product (2.16 g). LCMS calculated for C8H7BrN5OS (M+H)+: m/z=300.0. Found: 300.0.
