Trimethylsilyl iodide → 5-(3-aminomethyl-cyclohexyl)-3-methyl-5H-2-oxa-1,5,8-triaza-cyclopenta[a]naphthalen-4-one hydroiodide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Dissolve [3-(3-methyl-4-oxo-5H-2-oxa-1,5,8-triaza-cyclopenta[a]naphthalen-5-yl)-cyclohexylmethyl]-carbamic acid benzyl ester (0.45 g, 0.0010 mol) in dry dichloromethane (10 mL). add iodotrimethylsilane (0.36 mL, 0.0025 mol) and stir overnight at ambient temperature. Quench the mixture with methanol (5 mL) and concentrate in vacuo. Take up in minimal dichloromethane and add diethyl ether. Concentrate and titrate from dichloromethane/diethyl ether to form a dark solid. Decant he solvent and dry the solid in vacuo to give a near quantitative amount of the crude amine salt as a dark solid and is used directly without purification. MS(ES): (M+1)+ 313.2, 314.2 m/z.
