Potassium Bicarbonate → HCID 87618346, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 1.71 g (0.010 mole) of (rac)-2-methyl-3-(2-propenylamino)-propanoic acid methyl ester, 1.94 g (0.010 mole) of 2,4-dichloro-5-nitro-pyrimidine, 50 mL of ethyl acetate and 25 mL of water was added 3.0 g (0.030 mole) of potassium bicarbonate. The mixture was stirred for 3 hours, and then diluted with 50 mL of ethyl acetate and 50 mL of water. The aqueous layer was extracted with 100 mL of ethyl acetate. The organic layers were washed with 100 mL of brine, combined, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with dichloromethane-ethyl acetate (100:0-97.5:2.5) to give 2.55 g of (rac)-3-[allyl-(2-chloro-5-nitro-pyrimidin-4-yl)-amino]-2-methyl-propanoic acid methyl ester (IV-65) as a pale yellow oil.
