Sodium hydride → HCID 70874211, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

An ethanol solution (3.02 ml) of 20% sodium ethoxide was added to an ethanol solution (30 ml) of toluene-4-sulfonic acid (R)-4-(2-chloro-4-nitroimidazol-1-yl)-2-hydroxybutyl ester (3.00 g), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. 4-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (2.36 g) and tripotassium phosphate (1.80 g) were added to the reaction mixture and heated under reflux for 4 hours. Water was added to the reaction mixture, followed by extraction with methylene chloride. The organic layer was washed with water and dried over sodium sulfate. After filtering, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue thus obtained was dissolved in dimethylformamide (46 ml), sodium hydride (0.31 g) was added thereto, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. Water was added to the reaction mixture, followed by extraction with methylene chloride. The organic layer was dried over magnesium sulfate. After filtering, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (methylene chloride:ethyl acetate=1:0→methylene chloride:ethyl acetate=0:1) and recrystallized from acetone to afford the title compound as a yellow powder (0.72 g).
