Reaction Steps

10 mg (0.025 mmol) 3-benzothiazol-2-yl-7-[4-(2-hydroxy-ethyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-chromen-2-one are dissolved in 3 mL dichloromethane with 2.5 mg (0.8 eq.) 4-dimethylaminopyridine and 0.013 mL (3 eq.) diisopropylethylamine, and cooled to 0° C. 5.7 mg (1.2 eq.) tosyl chloride are added and the reaction mixture stirred for one hour before being allowed to reach room temperature. After an additional two hours stirring, the reaction mixture is evaporated, the residue taken up in tetrahydrofurane and treated with 0.2 mL tetrabutylammonium fluoride (1M in THF). After stirring for 30 minutes, the solution is evaporated and the desired product obtained as a yellow powder.
