Benzyl succinimido carbonate → HCID 66746504, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-amino-6-(2-amino-2-methylpropoxy)benzonitrile (Example 24d, 30.5 g, 148.6 mmol) in THF/H2O (1:1, 400 mL) was added NaHCO3 (24.7 g, 294 mmol), followed by benzyl (2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl) carbonate (44.0 g, 176 mmol) at room temperature. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 4 h then the organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (2×). The combined organic layers were washed with brine and dried over MgSO4. After filtration, the solvent was evaporated and the crude oil was purified by chromatography on silica gel (eluent: 0-60% EtOAc in hexane) to give the title compound as yellow oil (44.8 g, 89%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 1.30 (s, 6H), 4.02 (s, 2H), 4.96 (s, 2H), 5.98 (s, 2H), 6.14 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 1H), 6.32 (dd, J=0.8, 8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.12 (t, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.38-7.21 (m, 6H). MS 340 (MH+).
