1,3-Propanediamine, N'-(ethylcarbonimidoyl)-N,N-dimethyl-, monohydrochloride → (-)-1-(9-hydroxy-4-methyl-9-trifluoromethyl-9H-fluorene-2-carbonyl)-azetidine-3-carboxylic acid dimethylamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of an optically active form (0.080 g) of 9-hydroxy-4-methyl-9-trifluoromethyl-9H-fluorene-2-carboxylic acid, azetidine-3-carboxylic acid dimethylamide hydrochloride (0.060 g), 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (0.065 g), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate (0.052 g) and dimethylformamide (2 ml) was added triethylamine (0.073 ml), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hr. To the reaction mixture was added ethyl acetate (15 ml), and the mixture was successively washed once with hydrochloric acid, once with water, twice with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate and 3 times with water. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the obtained residue was treated with ethyl ether. This slurry was filtered and the obtained solid was dried to give the title compound (0.054 g, 50%).
