1-Hydroxybenzotriazole → 2-(6-bromo-1,2-benzisoxazol-3-yl)-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of (6-bromo-1,2-benzisoxazol-3-yl)acetic acid (Intermediate 32) (0.10 g) and HATU (0.18 g) in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) was stirred at room temp. for 10 min then treated with 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (0.05 g) 2-aminoethanol (0.03 ml) and diisopropylethylamine (0.2 ml). The mixture was stirred for a further 18 h then concentrated under vacuum. The residue was partitioned between dichloromethane (5 ml) and 2M aqueous sodium carbonate (5 ml). The organic layer was dried using a hydrophobic filter tube then applied to a Varian Bond-Elut SPE cartridge. Sequential elution with dichloromethane, ether, ethyl acetate, acetonitrile and acetone yieldded the title compound as a white solid (0.08 g).
