Triethylamine → (R)-methyl 3-hydroxy-4-(4-(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-7-methylquinazolin-4-yl)piperazin-1-yl)-4-oxobutanoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-((R)-2-Hydroxy-3-methoxycarbonyl-propionyl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester (0.52 g, 1.5 mmol) and MeOH (15 mL) were stirred with 10% Pd/C under an H2 atmosphere at ambient pressure overnight. After filtration and evaporation of the solvent the residue was taken up in CH2Cl2, and 2-(4-chloro-7-methylquinazolin-2-yl)phenol (0.40 g, 1.50 mmol) plus triethylamine (0.41 mL, 3.00 mmol) were added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, washed with water, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated. Purification via silica gel chromatography using 0-10% MeOH/CH2Cl2 provided (R)-methyl 3-hydroxy-4-(4-(2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-7-methylquinazolin-4-yl)piperazin-1-yl)-4-oxobutanoate (0.38 g, 57%). LC/MS: m/z 451.1 (M+H)+ at 2.18 min (10%-99% CH3CN (0.035% TFA)/H2O (0.05% TFA)).
