Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a screw cap pressure vessel was added the intermediate from Step B (0.450 g, 1.2 mmol), aminoguanidine hydrochloride (0.456 g, 6.2 mmol), methanol (20 mL) and boron trifluoride diethyl etherate (0.94 mL, 7.4 mmol). The reaction solution was heated at 100° C. for 3 hours. The solution was concentrated and the residue partitioned between EtOAc and aqueous 1N NaOH. The organic phase was washed twice with aqueous 1N NaOH and brine (1×). The organic phase was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give the indicated compound as a mixture of E,Z hyrazone isomers. 1H NMR (500 MHz, CH3OH-d4): δ 7.60 (d, J=8.6 Hz, 1H); 7.26-7.23 (m, 1H); 7.18 (d, J=2.5 Hz, 1H); 2.74 (s, 2H); 2.56 (s, 2H). m/z=421.2 (M+H).
