Participants

Reaction Steps

3-(2-Hydroxyethoxy)benzonitrile (1.60 g, 9.81 mmol) obtained in Step 2 was dissolved in anhydrous ethanol (570 μl) and 4N hydrochloric acid/1,4-dioxane solution (5.1 ml), and the mixture was stirred in a closed system at room temperature for two nights. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, anhydrous ethanol (30 ml) and ammonium carbonate (4.7 g, 49 mmol) were added to the obtained residue, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the obtained residue was suspended in dimethylformamide (20 ml). Triethylamine (4.1 ml, 29.4 mmol) and a solution (10 ml) of di-tert-butyldicarbonate (4.28 g, 19.6 mmol) in dimethylformamide were added dropwise under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. N,N-Dimethylethylenediamine (2.2 ml, 19.6 mmol) was added under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with ethyl acetate, and the mixture was washed with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution, saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution, and saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The organic layer was filtered through silica gel, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the title compound.
