4-Nitrobenzyl bromide → HCID 19045334, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-nitrobenzyl bromide (0.73 g, 3.4 mmol), 3,4-dihydro-6-acetamidospiro[(2H)-benzopyran-2,4'-piperidine]-4-one (0.94 g, 3.4 mmol) and diisopropylethylamine (0.61 ml, 3.5 mmol) in dimethylformamide (15 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr. The reaction mixture was then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with methylene chloride and washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, water and brine. Drying and solvent evaporation gave an oil; flash chromatography (silica gel, methanol-chloroform 2/98) gave 3,4-dihydro-6-acetamido-1'-(4-nitrobenzyl)spiro[(2H)-1-benzopyran-2,4'-piperidine]-4-one (0.83 g, 59%); 75 mg converted to hydrochloride; mp>250° C.
