Bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide → HCID 178511855, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-bromo-5′,6′-difluoro-3′,4′-dihydro-1′H-spiro[indene-2,2′-naphthalen]-1(3H)-one (150 mg, 0.41 mmol) in dried CH2Cl2 (1 mL) was added TiCl4 (1 M solution in DCM, 0.1.24 mmol) dropwise within 15 minutes, and stirred for 1 h. Then to this mixture was added bis-trimethlysilylcarbodiimide (234 mg, 1.24 mmol) dropwise. The resulting mixture was stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was poured into ice-water, extracted with CH2Cl2. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give (Z)—N-(5-bromo-5′,6′-difluoro-3′,4′-dihydro-1′H-spiro[indene-2,2′-naphthalene]-3(1H)-ylidene)cyanamide (180 mg, crude), which was used for the next step without further purification.
