Hydrochloric Acid → (E)-N-(6-(2-aminophenylamino)-6-oxohex-4-enyl)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (E)-tert-butyl 2-(6-benzamidohex-2-enamido)phenylcarbamate (14)(170 mg, 0.402 mmol) in propan-2-ol (10 mL). The mixture was stirred at 0° C. with HCl gas for 1 hour, To the reaction mixture was added 10% K2CO3 to adjust the pH value to 7-8, then the mixture was extracted with DCM (3×50 mL), the combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give the desired compound of (E)-N-(6-(2-aminophenylamino)-6-oxohex-4-enyl)benzamide (71.6 mg, yield 62%) as an off-white solid after purification by column chromatography (eluent: DCM:MeOH=50:1). 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO): δ 1.724 (t, 2H), 2.258 (t, 2H), 3.465 (m, 2H), 4.875 (s, 1H), 6.165-6.216 (d, J=15.3 1H), 6.511-6.991 (m, 4H), 7.232-7.258 (d, 1H), 7.425-7.512 (m, 3H). 7.802-7.852 (m, 2H), 8.507 (s, 1H), 9.200 (s, 1H); LC-MS found 324 (M+H)+; HPLC (214 nm, 99.6%, 254 nm, 100%).
