Hydrazine → HCID 86588594, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of hydrazine (23 mg, 23 μL, 0.72 mmol) in MeOH (5 mL) was added dropwise to a solution of the diol 76 (95 mg, 0.145 mmol) and Raney Ni (20 mg) in MeOH (15 mL) heated at reflux. After 1 hour at reflux TLC (90% CHCl3/MeOH) revealed some amine formation. The reaction mixture was treated with further Raney Ni (20 mg) and hydrazine (23 mg, 23 μL, 0.72 mmol) in MeOH (5 mL) and was heated at reflux for an additional 30 minutes at which point TLC revealed complete reaction. The reaction mixture was then treated with enough Raney Ni to decompose any remaining hydrazine and heated at reflux for a further 1.5 hours. Following cooling to room temperature the mixture was filtered through a sinter and the resulting filtrate evaporated in vacuo. The resulting residue was then treated with CH2Cl3 (30 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo to provide the bis-amine (77) as a yellow oil (54 mg, 63%): 1H NMR (270 MHz, CDCl3) (diastereoisomers) δ 6.73 (S, 2Harom) 6.32 (s, 2Harom), 4.60-4.30 (m, 2H, NCHCH2OH) 4.19 (t, 4H, J=5.87 Hz, OCH2CH2CH2O), 3.78-3.50 (m, 14H, NCHCH2OH, NCH2CHCH3 and OCH3), 2.40-1.55 (m, 8H, NCH2CHCH3); OCH2CH2CH2O and NCH2CHCH2CH2), 1.00-0.95 (m, 6H, NCH2CHCH3); MS (EI), m/z (relative intensity) 600 (M+., 16), 459 (46), 345 (16), 206 (13), 186 (17), 180 (31), 166 (37), 149 (6), 142 (76), 100 (6), 98 (13), 97 (29), 84 (81), 69 (7), 55 (100).
