Formamidine acetate → tert-butyl 4-(4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidin-7-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl 4-[4-amino-5-(ethoxycarbonyl)-1H-pyrrol-3-yl]piperidine-1-carboxylate (466 mg, 1.38 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (8 mL), and then formamidine acetate (863 mg, 8.29 mmol) was added, followed by heating under reflux for 14 hours. The reaction liquid was cooled, and the precipitated solid was filtered and washed with ethanol to give tert-butyl 4-(4-oxo-4,5-dihydro-3H-pyrrolo[3,2-d]pyrimidin-7-yl)piperidine-1-carboxylate (452 mg, >1000) as a pale yellow solid.
