Potassium Carbonate → HCID 68379922, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Potassium carbonate (195.4 g, 1414 mmol) was added to a mixture of 5-(4-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-2-carboxylic acid, hydrochloride salt (C3) (34.5 g, 135 mmol) and 2-chloro-N-(2-chloroethyl)ethanamine hydrochloride (37.8 g, 212 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (670 mL), and the reaction was stirred for 10 minutes. O-(7-Azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HATU, 83.5 g, 219 mmol) was added and stirring was continued for an additional 3 hours and 40 minutes. The reaction mixture was then poured into water (4 L) and stirred for 30 minutes. After extraction with dichloromethane (3×1 L), the combined organic layers were washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution (3×3 L), dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Finally, most of the DMF was removed by using a methanol/liquid nitrogen cooler. The residue was stirred in ethyl acetate (approximately 50 mL) for 30 minutes. The solids were collected by filtration and washed with ethyl acetate and pentane, providing the title compound as a yellow solid. Yield: 23.0 g, 75.0 mmol, 56%. LCMS m/z 307.1 (M+1). 1H-NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 2.29 (br s, 3H), 3.80-3.93 (m, 6H), 4.38-4.44 (m, 2H), 7.13-7.16 (m, 1H), 7.27 (d, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 7.45 (d, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 8.24 (d, J=1.0 Hz, 1H).
