Methanol → HCID 13092708, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

3.0 g of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-methyl-3-D-glucopyranosylurea prepared in the same manner as described in Example 1-(1) are dissolved in a mixture of 80 ml of tetrahydrofuran and 80 ml of methylene chloride, and 15 g of sodium carbonate anhydrate are added thereto. 5 g of nitrogen tetroxide gas are introduced into the mixture for 10 minutes under ice-cooling. The mixture is further stirred at the same temperature for 10 minutes. After the reaction, 10 ml of methanol and 3 ml of water are added to the mixture, and the mixture is stirred for 10 minutes. Said mixture is dried, filtered and evaporated to remove solvent. Then, the residue obtained is purified by silica gel chromatography (Solvent: ethyl acetate-chloroform-methanol(5:2:1)). 2.4 g of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitroso-3-methyl-3-D-glucopyranosylurea are thereby obtained as a pale yellow powder.
