Boron trifluoride etherate → HCID 86635097, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of {1-[(1S,2R)-2-methylcyclohexyl]-2-oxo-6-{[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-1,6-dihydroimidazo[4,5-d]pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3(2H)-yl}acetonitrile (25 mg) in dichloromethane (1 mL) was added boron trifluoride etherate (35.7 μl) dropwise at 4° C. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 0.5 hour. To the mixture was added 5.5M sodium acetate aqueous solution (0.207 mL) and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 4 hours. The mixture was extracted with chloroform and washed with water. The extract was dried over MgSO4, filtrated and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on NH silica gel with EtOAc and n-hexane (50:50 to 95:5) to give {1-[(1S,2R)-2-methylcyclohexyl]-2-oxo-1,6-dihydroimidazo[4,5-d]pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridin-3(2H)-yl}acetonitrile (4 mg) as a white powder.
