Ethyl Acetate → 8-chlorodibenz[b,f][1,4]oxazepine-10(11H)-carboxylic acid, 2-[1-oxo-3-(3-pyridinyl)-2E-propenyl]hydrazide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirring solution of 2.82 g (9.7 mmol) of 8-chlorodibenz[b,f][1,4]oxazepine-10(11H)-carboxylic acid, hydrazide (1), prepared as described above in Example 1, in 25 mL of dimethyl formamide (DMF) cooled in an ice bath was added 1.54 g (9.7 mmol) of 3-(3-pyridyl)acrylic acid. To the heterogenous mixture was added 1.74 mL (10 mmol) of N,N-diisopropylethylamine and 1.92 g (10 mmol) of N,N-dimethylaminopropylethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride. The reaction was stirred over night at ambient temperature. To the reaction was added 100 mL of ethyl acetate (EtOAc) and 100 mL of a saturated solution of KHCO3. The resulting layers were separated, and the organic layer was washed three times with saturated KHCO3 and two times with water. The organic layer was then dried over Na2SO4 anhydrous and filtered. The solvent was removed under vacuum, and the resultant solid was chromatographed. The yield of isolated product was 2.16 g (53%). Analysis calculated for C22H17N4O3Cl (M.W. 420.86): C, 62.79; H, 4.07; N, 13.31; Cl, 8.42. Found: C, 62.72; H, 4.27; N, 12.78; Cl 8.21.
