Sodium Bicarbonate → 3-(2-Bromo-1-hydroxyethyl)-1,5-bis(2-trimethylsilylethoxymethyl)-1,5-dihydropyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-4-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 150 ml of dehydrated tetrahydrofuran solution containing 6.64 g (12.9 mmol) of 3-(2-bromoacetyl)-1,5-bis(2-trimethylsilylethoxymethyl)-1,5-dihydropyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazin-4-one obtained in Reference example 57-(b) was added dropwise 100 ml of tetrahydrofuran solution containing 486 mg (12.8 mmol) of sodium borohydride under cooling in ice-bath. After dropwise addition, the mixture was stirred at the same temperature for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, to the reaction mixture was added a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogencarbonate, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then, concentrated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was applied to silica gel column chromatography (Eluent; hexane:ethyl acetate=7:3 (V/V)), and the fractions containing the desired compound were concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain 5.67 g of the title compound as a white solid. (Yield: 85%)
