1-Hydroxybenzotriazole → (E)-3,3,3-trifluoro-N-((4-(4,4,4-trifluoro-3-(3,4,5-trichlorophenyl)but-1-en-1-yl)naphthalen-1-yl)methyl)propanamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (E)-(4-(4,4,4-trifluoro-3-(3,4,5-trichlorophenyl)but-1-en-1-yl)naphthalen-1-yl)methanamine (0.1 g, 0.22 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (8 mL) were added 3,3,3-trifluoropropanoic acid (0.032 g, 0.24 mmol), HOBt.H2O (52 mg, 0.33 mmol), EDC.HCl (0.065 g, 0.33 mmol) and DIEA (0.044 g, 0.45 mmol), and the resultant reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with H2O and extracted with EtOAc (3×30 mL). The combined EtOAc layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. Purification by flash column chromatography (SiO2, 100-200 mesh; 15% EtOAc in n-hexane) afforded the title compound as a gummy material (60 mg, 50%): mp 151-153° C.; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.06 (m, 1H), 7.61 (m, 4H), 7.48 (s, 2H), 7.44 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.38 (m, 1H), 6.42 (m, 1H), 5.92 (br s, 1H), 4.92 (m, 2H), 4.24 (m, 1H), 3.12 (m, 2H); ESIMS m/z 554.04 ([M−H]−).
