Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

Bumetanide (1.2 g, 3.29 mmol) was dissolved in dimethylformamide (12 mL) and 2-chloro-N,N-diethylacetamide (500 mg, 3.35 mmol) was added followed by triethylamine (0.68 mL) and sodium iodide (500 mg 3.33 mmol). The reaction was heated to 95° C. for 8 hours, at which time TLC and LC/MS indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction was cooled to room temperature brought up in dichloromethane and washed with water, saturated ammonium chloride and reduced to a thick slurry. To the slurry was added water (25 mL), and the resultant solids precipitated from the solution. The product was filtered and dried in a vacuum oven at 50° C. for 12 hours to yield 1.0 g of N,N-diethylaminocarbonylmethyl 3-aminosulfonyl-5-butylamino-4-phenoxybenzoate.
