Methanol → 4-Hydroxy-1-(2-morpholin-4-yl-ethyl)-5-oxo-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylic acid 3,4-difluoro-benzylamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of N-(3,4-difluoro-benzyl)-2-(2,2-dimethyl-5-oxo-[1,3]dioxolan-4-ylidene)-acetamide (58 mg, 0.195 mmol) and a 0.2 mmol solution of methylene-(2-morpholin-4-yl-ethyl)-amine in methanol (1.1 mL, 0.22 mmol) was heated at 70° C. for 1 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and purified by preparative HPLC using methanol/water (0.1% TFA) as the eluent. The fractions containing the product were combined and concentrated to give the title compound as a hydroscopic yellow powder (30 mg, 31% yield). 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO) δ: 11.95 (1H, br s), 9.56 (1H, br s), 8.03 (1H, t, J=6.1 Hz), 7.41–7.30 (2H, m), 7.15–7.12 (1H, m), 4.41 (2H, d, J=6.1 Hz), 4.04 (2H, s), 4.02–3.93 (2H, m), 3.82–3.77 (2H, m), 3.65–3.51 (4H, m), 3.45–3.41 (2H, m), 3.15–3.06 (2H, m). HRMS calcd for C18H20F2N3O4 (M+H): 380.1422. found: 380.1424.
