Cesium carbonate → tert-butyl 2-(N-methylformamido)-7-(2-(2-(2-(tosyloxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)-9H-carbazole-9-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To tert-butyl 2-hydroxy-7-(N-methylformamido)-9H-carbazole-9-carboxylate (65 mg, 0.19 mmol) and 2-(2-(2-fluoroethoxy)ethoxy)ethyl 4-methylbenzenesulfonate (174 mg, 0.38 mmol) in 0.5 mL NMP was added Cs2CO3 (68 mg, 0.21 mmol). The mixture was stirred at rt for 15 h under Ar atmosphere and diluted with EtOAc (80 mL). It was washed with water (3×50 mL), and dried over MgSO4. Solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the crude product was purified with silica chromatography (hexane/EtOAc) to afford tert-butyl 2-(N-methylformamido)-7-(2-(2-(2-(tosyloxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)-9H-carbazole-9-carboxylate (AD-CB-004Pb-WZ01191) as a clear oil (75 mg, 63%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.56 (s, 1H), 8.14 (s, 1H), 7.89 (s, 1H), 7.87 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 7.83 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.79 (m, 2H), 7.32 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H), 7.15 (dd, J=8.4, 2.0 Hz, 1H), 7.00 (dd, J=8.8, 2.4 Hz, 1H), 4.23 (m, 1H), 3.89 (m, 2H), 3.88 (m, 2H), 3.73-3.68 (m, 4H), 3.66-3.63 (m, 2H), 3.41 (s, 3H), 2.42 (s, 3H), 1.76 (s, 9H); MS (ESI) m/z 527 (M+H+).
