Participants

Reaction Steps

To a round bottomed flask equipped with a reflux condenser and a stirring bar were added piroxicam (1.00 g, 3.0 mmol), potassium carbonate (840 mg, 6.0 mmol), chloromethyl octanoate (870 mg, 4.5 mmol) and acetone (15 mL). The heterogenous reaction mixture was heated to reflux under a nitrogen atmosphere. After 6 hours additional chloromethyl octanoate (250 mg, 0.75 mmol) and additional potassium carbonate (210 mg, 1.5 mmol) were added and reflux continued for an additional hour. Chromatographed title product was isolated, according to the method of Example 5, as a yellow foam which oiled from toluene/hexane, but crystallized from the oil upon refrigeration (690 mg white crystals, 1.4 mmol, 47%); mp 98°-99° C.; IR (KBr) 1766, 1683 cm-1 ; 1H NMR (CDCl3) delta 0.87 (t, J=8 Hz, 3H), 1.02-1.48 (m, 10H), 2.19 (t, J=6 Hz, 2 H), 3.12 (s, 3H), 5.70 (s, 2H), 7.08-7.17 (m, 1H), 7.67-7.98 (m, 5H), 8.30-8.45 (m, 2H), 9.32 (br s, 1H); precise mass calcd for C24H30N3O6S m/e (P+ +H) 488.1859, found 488.1794.
