Hydrochloric Acid → 5-Chloro-3-(2-tritylamino-3-hydroxypropoxy)-1,2-benzoisoxazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 5.58 g of trityl chloride in 6 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide is added to a solution of 4.85 g of 3-(2-amino-3-hydroxypropoxy)-5-chloro-1,2-benzoisoxazole and 2.02 g of triethylamine in 12 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide at -40° to -30° C., and they are subjected to reaction at the same temperature for 30 minutes. Subsequently, ice water and ethyl acetate are added to the reaction mixture and the pH is adjusted to 2 with 2N hydrochloric acid. The organic layer is separated, and the separated organic layer is washed with a saturated saline solution and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, after which the solvent is removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The residue obtained is crystallized from n-hexane and the crystals are collected by filtration, to obtain 7.28 g of colorless, crystalline 5-chloro-3-(2-tritylamino-3-hydroxypropoxy)-1,2-benzoisoxazole having a melting point of 142°-144° C.
