Hydrochloric Acid → 3',4'-Diamino-biphenyl-2-sulfonic acid tert-butylamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

2-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-5-(2-tert-butylaminosulfonyl-phenyl)-phenyl carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (5.4 g, 10.3 mmol) in a solution of 4M HCl in 1,4-dioxane (250 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 4 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was dissolved in dichloromethane, and the solution was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate and water (pH=7). The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography (silica, EtOAc: hexanes, 1:1) to afford the title compound as a brown viscous oil (6.1 g, 92% yield). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ (ppm): 8.12 (dd, 1H, J=7.9, J=1.7), 7.51 (td, 1H, J=7.5 Hz, J=1.5 Hz), 7.42 (td, 1H, J=7.6 Hz, J=1.3 Hz), 7.30 (dd, 1H, J=7.8, J=1.5), 6.94 (d, 1H, J=1.9), 6.80 (m, 2H), 3.80 (s, NH), 3.50 (br s, 4H), 0.98 (s, 9H). Mass Spectrum (LCMS, ESI pos.) Calcd. For C16H21N3O2S: 320.42 (M+H), Found 320.9.
