1,1'-Carbonyldiimidazole → HCID 57901864, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-(2-{7-[methyl(2-thienylsulfonyl)amino]-1H-indol-2-yl}-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)propanoic acid (0.3.0 g), 1,1′-carbonylbis-1H-imidazole (0.27 g) and tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) was heated under reflux for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, methanesulfonamide (0.32 g) and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene (0.50 mL) were added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated and 10% aqueous citric acid solution was added. The resulting crystals were collected by filtration, washed with water and dried. The obtained crystals were subjected to silica gel column chromatography and the title compound (0.21 g, yield 60%) was obtained as yellow crystals from a fraction eluted with tetrahydrofuran-hexane (3:1, volume ratio). The crystals were recrystallized from ethyl acetate. melting point 217-218° C.
