Reaction Steps

To a solution of 8-bromo-4,5-dihydro-6-oxa-1,3a-diaza-benzo[e]azulene-2-carboxylic acid (8.27 g, 26.7 mmol), EDCI (6.66 g, 34.8 mmol), HOBt (4.69 g, 34.8 mmol) and ammonium chloride (4.29 g, 80.2 mmol) in DMF (80 mL) was added triethylamine (7.49 mL, 53.5 mmol) and the reaction mixture stirred at 45° C. for 1.5 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue triturated with water (250 mL). The precipitated product was collected by filtration and dried in vacuo at 45° C. for 16 h to give 8-Bromo-4,5-dihydro-6-oxa-1,3a-diaza-benzo[e]azulene-2-carboxylic acid amide as a buff coloured solid (7.67 g, 93%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, d6-DMSO) 8.40 (1H, d, J=8.7 Hz), 7.80 (1H, s), 7.42 (1H, br s), 7.32 (1H, dd, J=8.7, 2.0 Hz), 7.27 (1H, d, J=2.1 Hz), 7.15 (1H, br s), 4.50-4.46 (4H, m). LCMS: RT=3.07 min, M+H+=308/310. 1H NMR showed product to contain 5% 8-iodo-4,5-dihydro-6-oxa-1,3a-diaza-benzo[e]azulene-2-carboxylic acid amide.
