Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1,1-dimethylethyl 2-(5-isothiazolylcarbonyl)hydrazinecarboxylate (I83) (480 mg, 1.973 mmol) in HCl (2 ml, 8.00 mmol) (4M in 1,4-dioxan) was stirred at room temperature under argon for 18 hours (overnight). After this time, the mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a pale yellow coloured solid. The solid was dissolved in MeOH and passed through and SCX cartridge, eluting initially with MeOH and then with 2M NH3 in MeOH. The NH3/MeOH fractions were concentrated under reduced pressure to give a yellow coloured solid in 217 mg.
