N-BOC-ethylenediamine → Tert-butyl 2-((2-(3-(3-fluorobenzyl)ureido)thiazol-4-yl)methylamino)ethylcarbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (937 mg, 4.42 mmol) was added to a CH2Cl2 (50 mL) solution of 1-(3-fluorobenzyl)-3-(4-formylthiazol-2-yl)urea (620 mg, 2.21 mmol) and tert-butyl 2-aminoethylcarbamate (532 mg, 3.32 mmol) at 0 C. Upon completion of the reaction, it was quenched with dilute NaHCO3. The organics were dried and evaporated. Flash chromatography afforded tert-butyl 2-((2-(3-(3-fluorobenzyl)ureido)thiazol-4-yl)methylamino)ethylcarbamate. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 8.05 (1H, br), 7.28 (m, 1H), 7.00 (m, 3H), 6.61 (s, 1H), 4.80 (s, 1H), 4.49 (d, 2H), 3.73 (s, 2H), 3.17 (m, 2H), 2.63 (t, 2H), 1.41 (s, 9H). MS (ES+): M/Z 424 (M+H)+.
