Benzoyl chloride → HCID 59742748, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-amino-1-tritylimidazole (0.30 g, 0.92 mmol) in dichloromethane (4 ml) were added sequentially triethylamine (0.19 ml, 1.37 mmol) and benzoyl chloride (0.13 ml, 1.12 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes, then diluted with dichloromethane and washed sequentially with water, saturated aq. NaHCO3 solution, water and saturated brine. The organic layer was separated, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluant: methanol/dichloromethane 0:100 to 10:90) to yield the title compound as an orange solid (0.36 g, 92%); MS (ISP): 430.3 ([M+H]+).
