Phosphate → 6-(4-Bromo-2-methyl-phenylamino)-7-fluoro-3-(4-oxo-butyl)-3H-benzoimidazole-5-carboxylic acid cyclopropylmethoxy-amide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 6-(4-bromo-2-methyl-phenylamino)-3-(4,5-dihydroxy-pentyl)-7-fluoro-3H-benzoimidazole-5-carboxylic acid cyclopropylmethoxy-amide 11m (0.244 g, 0.456 mmol), THF (5 mL) and pH 7 phosphate buffer (3 mL) is added sodium periodate (0.195 g, 0.911 mmol). After 16 hours, the reaction mixture is diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with NaHCO3, and brine. The organic layer is dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure to give an orange solid. Purification by FCC eluted with 4:1 methylene chloride/MeOH yields 0.189 g (82%) pure desired product as a yellow solid: MS APCI (+) m/z 505, 503 (M+1 Br pattern) detected; MS APCI (−) m/z 503, 501 (M−1 Br pattern) detected.
