Reaction Steps

5.4 g of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-3-n-butyl-3-D-mannopyranosylurea are dissolved in 20 ml of formic acid, and 3.5 g of sodium nitrite are added gradually thereto for 2 hours under ice-cooling and stirring. 40 ml of methanol and 30 g of potassium carbonate anhydrate are added to said mixture. Then, said mixture is further stirred for 10 minutes under ice-cooling. After the reaction, the mixture is treated in the same manner as described in Example 5-(2). 1.6 g of 1-(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitroso-3-n-butyl-3-D-mannopyranosylurea are thereby obtained as yellow caramel.
