Formamide → HCID 10075893, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Formamide (0.15 mL, 4.3 mmol) and phosphorus pentasulfide (0.33 g, 0.73 mmol) in 15 mL dioxane were refluxed for 2 hr., and 4 mL of this solution was added to 59 mg of the compound of Example 15 in 2 mL dioxane with 100 mg magnesium carbonate. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 1.75 hr. and poured into ethyl ether/1N sodium hydroxide. The ether layer was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated. Flash chromatography on silica gel using 8:1 hexane/ethyl acetate as eluant gave the product (28 mg, 52 μmmol, 51% yield). High resolution mass spectrum, m/e 537.2195 (calculated for C30H35NO6S, 537.2185).
