Trifluoroacetic acid → HCID 67357639, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 5-bromo-3-hydroxy-3-(7-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-yl)-1-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one (3.60 g, 8.10 mmol) in triethylsilane (10 mL) at 0° C. was added trifluoroacetic acid (40 mL). The solution was allowed to warm to ambient temperature over 2 h and was stirred for a further 4 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate and ethyl acetate were added to the residue, causing a precipitate to be deposited. The solid was collected by filtration and washed sequentially with diethyl ether and hexanes to afford 5-bromo-3-(7-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-yl)-1-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one (4.03 g, 100%) as a pale yellow solid: 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.59-8.55 (m, 1H), 7.90-7.80 (m, 1H), 7.44-7.37 (m, 1H), 7.34-7.27 (m, 1H), 7.07 (s, 1H), 6.82-6.68 (m, 2H), 6.27 (s, 1H), 5.17-4.93 (m, 2H), 4.84 (s, 1H), 4.23-4.06 (m, 4H). MS (ES+) m/z 452.9 (M+1), 454.9 (M+1).
