1,1'-Carbonyldiimidazole → N-[17-[2-ethoxy-7-methoxy-8-methylquinolin-4-yloxy]-13-methyl-2,14-dioxo-3,13-diazatricyclo[13.3.0.04,6]octadec-7-ene-4-carbonyl] (cyclo-propyl)sulfonamide

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (2) (182 mg, 0.32 mmol) and CDI (139 mg, 0.29 mmol) in dry THF (10 mL) was heated at reflux for 1.5h under nitrogen. LCMS analysis showed one peak of the intermediate (2-1) (a stable intermediate, which can be isolated by purification on silica gel). The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and cyclopropyl-sulfonamide (93 mg, 0.76 mmol) was added. Then, DBU (138 mg, 0.91 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h, then heated at 55° C. for 12 h. Next, the solvent was evaporated, and the residue partitioned between ethyl acetate and acidic water (pH=3). The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated. The crude material was purified by column chromatography (ethyl acetate/CH2Cl2, 1:9). The residue was sonicated in water for 1 h, filtered off and washed with isopropylether to give the title product (3) as a white powder: m/z=669 (M+H)+. 1H NMR (CDCl3): 0.90-1.30 (m, 5H), 1.31-1.52 (m, 6H), 1.61-1.72 (m, 1H), 1.73-1.99 (m, 3H), 2.09-2.20 (m, 1H), 2.30-2.42 (m, 2H), 2.48-2.62 (m, 5H), 2.70-2.83 (m, 1H), 3.01 (s, 3H), 3.30-3.41 (m, 2H), 3.94 (s, 3H), 4.50-4.73 (m, 3H), 5.05 (t, J=10.0 Hz, 2H), 5.62-5.69 (m, 1H), 5.95 (s, 1H), 6.35 (br s, 1H), 7.01 (d, J=9.1 Hz, 1H), 7.85 (d, J=9.1 Hz, 1H), 10.8 (br s, 1H).
