(S)-(+)-4-(2,3-Epoxypropoxy)carbazole → (S)-4-[2-Hydroxy-3-([4-(phenylsulfonamido)phenyl]-2-methylpropylamino)propoxy]carbazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (S)-4-(oxiranylmethoxy)-9H-carbazole (1.0 g, 4.18 mmol) and N-(4-[2-methyl-2-aminopropyl]phenyl)benzenesulfonamide (1.9 g, 6.24 mmol) in absolute ethanol (100 mL) was refluxed for 18 h. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the residue was purified by column chromatography eluting with chloroform:methanol (95:5). Concentration of the appropriate fractions provided 1.53 g (69%) of the desired product. MS (FD) m/e 544.3 (MH+); Anal. Calcd. for C31H33N3O4S: C, 68.48; H, 6.12; N, 7.73. Found: C, 68.49; H, 6.02; N, 7.53.
