O-Phenylenediamine → RG-2833

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 6-(4-methylbenzamido)hexanoic acid (498 mg, 2 mmol), o-phenylenediamine (216 mg, 2 mmol), EDCI (383 mg, 2 mmol), HOBt (405 mg, 3 mmol), and triethylamine (404 mg, 4 mmol) in dichloromethane (30 mL) was stirred at room temperature under nitrogen overnight. The reaction mixture was washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4, and evaporated. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel to give the title compound (227 mg, 33.9%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (DMSO): δ 9.06 (s, 1H), 8.35 (s, 1H), 7.73 (d, J=3.0 Hz, 2H), 7.24 (d, J=3.0 Hz, 2H), 7.14 (1H, J=3.0, d), 6.86-6.89 (m, 1H), 6.70 (d, J=3.0 Hz, 1H), 6.50 (M, 1H), 4.80 (s, 2H), 3.22-3.26 (m, 2H), 2.30-2.35 (m, 5H), 1.53-1.65 (m, 4H), 1.36-1.38 (m, 2H). LC-MS: 340 (MH)+. purity>95%.
