Sodium Bicarbonate → 1-(2-(4-((2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin-6-ylmethyl)amino)cyclohexyl)ethyl)-7-methoxy-4-methylquinolin-2(1H)-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 4 mL of a dichloromethane solution containing 90 mg of 1-(2-(1-hydroxy-4-oxocyclohexyl)ethyl)-7-methoxyquinoxalin-2(1H)-one, 2 mL of a dichloromethane solution containing 57 mg of 1-(2,3-dihydro(1,4)dioxino(2,3-c)pyridin-7-yl)methaneamine and 24 μL of acetic acid were added at room temperature, and stirred at the same temperature for 1.5 hours. To the reaction mixture, 59 mg of sodium triacetoxyborohydride was added, and stirred at room temperature for 1.5 hours. To the reaction mixture, aqueous saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and chloroform were added. The organic layer was separated, and the aqueous layer was extracted with chloroform. The organic layer and extracts were combined, washed with aqueous saturated sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue thus obtained was purified by basic silica gel column chromatography [eluent; chloroform:methanol=50:1], to give (A) 29 mg as a light red oil and (B)24 mg as a light red oil. To the purified products A and B, a mixture of diethyl ether and hexane was added, respectively, and each resulting solid was filtered to give (A) 28 mg of 1-(2-(4-((2,3-dihydro(1,4)dioxino(2,3-c)pyridin-7-ylmethyl)amino)-1-hydroxycyclohexyl)ethyl)-7-methoxyquinoxalin-2(1H)-one as a light red solid and (B) 21 mg of 1-(2-(4-((2,3-dihydro(1,4)dioxino(2,3-c)pyridin-7-ylmethyl)amino)-1-hydroxycyclohexyl)ethyl)-7-methoxyquinoxalin-2(1H)-one as a light red solid.
