Chlorotrimethylsilane → HCID 56961562, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1,2-diphenylethanone (300 mg, 1.53 mmol), 3-ethoxy-4-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzaldehyde (324 mg, 1.53 mmol), and 1,3-dimethylurea (174 mg, 1.98 mmol) in DMF (5 mL) was added TMSCl (1.0 g, 9.12 mmol), and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight under nitrogen. LCMS showed that about 30% of starting materials were consumed. H2O (10 mL) was added to quench the reaction, and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (30 mL×3). The combined organic layer was washed with brine (20 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography (PE:EtOAc=1:2) and preparative HPLC to afford Compound 41 as a yellow solid (82 mg, yield: 11.6%). 1H NMR (DMSO-d6 400 MHz): 610.40 (s, 1H), 7.50 (s, 1H), 7.30 (d, J=6.0 Hz, 3H), 7.25 (d, J=8.0 Hz, 3H), 7.00 (d, J=6.8 Hz, 3H), 6.75 (d, J=6.4 Hz, 2H), 5.11 (s, 1H), 4.00-4.17 (m, 2H), 2.82 (s, 3H), 2.75 (s, 3H), 1.33 (t, J=6.8 Hz, 3H); MS (ESI): m/z 460.1 [M+1]+.
