Hydrochloric Acid → 4-{2-[2-(Acetylamino)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]ethyl}-2-fluorobenzyl tert-butyl hydrazine-1,2-dicarboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of N-(4-{2-[3-fluoro-4-(hydroxymethyl)phenyl]ethyl}-1,3-thiazol-2-yl)acetamide (118.8 mg, 0.4036 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (1.5 ml) was added 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (98.1 mg, 0.605 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2.5 hr. tert-Butyl carbazate (160.3 mg, 1.213 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 hr. Water, 1M hydrochloric acid and ethyl acetate were added, and the mixture was stirred, stood still and then partitioned. The organic layer was washed twice with water, and washed with saturated brine. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the residue was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was suspended in dichloromethane (15 ml) and filtered. After washing with dichloromethane, the residue was dried under reduced pressure and purified by silica gel column chromatography (FUJI SILYSIA CHEMICAL LTD. BW-300SP 12 g, ethyl acetate:hexane=1:1). The fractions containing the object product were concentrated to give a solid, which was suspended in a mixture of tert-butyl methyl ether (5 ml) and hexane (5 ml) and filtered. The filtered product was dried under reduced pressure to give 4-{2-[2-(acetylamino)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]ethyl}-2-fluorobenzyl tert-butyl hydrazine-1,2-dicarboxylate (153.7 mg, 0.340 mmol, yield 84.2%) as a white solid.
