2,4-Dimethoxyphenyl isocyanate → 2-amino-7-(3-(2,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)ureidomethyl)-4,7-dihydro-5H-thieno[2,3-c]pyran-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-amino-7-aminomethyl-4,7-dihydro-5H-thieno[2,3-c]pyran-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (64 mg, 0.22 mmol) in dichloromethane (1 ml) was added 2,4-dimethoxyphenylisocyanate (40 mg, 0.22 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo, diluted with ethyl acetate (30 ml), washed with saturated sodium carbonate (3×25 ml), brine (3×25 ml), dried (MgSO4), filtered and the solvent evaporated in vacuo. The residue was subjected to preparative thin layer chromatography (100% dichloromethane). Rf=0.8 was isolated and the solvent evaporated in vacuo which afforded 55 mg (53%) of 2-amino-7-(3-(2,4-dimethoxy-phenyl)ureidomethyl)-4,7-dihydro-5H-thieno[2,3-c]pyran-3-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as an oil.
