Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 15230866, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of benzyl 7-(3,5,6-trimethyl-1,4-benzoquinon-2-yl)-7-phenylheptanoylglycinate (0.95, 2.0 mmoles) and L-proline (0.24 g, 2.1 mmoles) was added a solution of N-ethylmorpholine (0.48 g, 4.2 mmoles), in dimethylformamide (10 ml) at room temperature. After 15 hours, 1N hydrochloric acid (5 ml) was added to the reaction mixture. The product was extracted with ethylacetate. The extract was worked up in the usual manner. The crude product was chromatographed on a reversed phase ODS column (YMC-Gel ODS, 60/200 mesh, Yamamura Chemical Co. Kyoto) with methanol-H2O (9:1) as eluant to give 7-(3,5,6-trimethyl-1,4-benzoquinon-2-yl)-7-phenylheptanoyl-L-proline (0.64 g, 71%) as an oil.
