Nitromethane → HCID 10032156, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The compound of Example 26 (30 mg, 53.7 μmol) was added to 1.5 ml of nitromethane, 0.5 ml of THF, and 30 ml (0.25 mmol) benzyl bromide. The mixture was allowed to react at room temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was poured into ethyl ether/water, and the ether layer was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated under vacuum. Flash chromatography of the residue on silica gel using 10:1 to 7:1 hexane/ethyl acetate (1% acetic acid) gave the product (25 mg, 38.5 μmol, 72% yield). High resolution mass spectrum, m/e 648.2490 (calculated for C36H42NO6S2 (M+H), 648.2453).
