Reaction Steps

The product from Example 1B (420 g, 2.72 mol) and 1,1′-carbonyldiimidazole (530 g, 3.27 mol) were combined in ethyl acetate (8.9 Kg) at ambient temperature and stirred for 2 hours. The mixture was treated with water (50 mL) and 2-aminoacetamide hydrochloride (368 g, 3.27 mol, purchased from Aldrich), heated at 65° C. for 10 hours, allowed to cool to room temperature, diluted with H2O (4.9 Kg) and heptane (1.35 Kg), and cooled to 10° C. resulting in formation of a solid. The solid was collected by filtration and washed with a mixture of H2O (440 g) and ethyl acetate (350 g). The resulting wet cake was slurried with H2O (2.0 Kg), filtered (550 g heptane wash) and dried to afford the title compound. 1H NMR (d6-DMSO, 300 MHz) δ 8.10 (t, 1H), 7.21 (s, 1H), 6.95 (s, 1H), 3.62 (dq, 2H), 1.1-1.6 (m, 11H), 0.85 (dd, 1H), 0.61 (dd, 1H); 13C NMR (CDCl3, 100 MHz) δ 171.2, 170.8, 42.0, 36.9, 28.2, 26.7, 25.8, 25.2, 18.1; MS m/z 211 (M+H)+.
