Reaction Steps

4-(4-Nitrophenoxy)pyridin-2-ylamine (100 mg) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) under a nitrogen atmosphere, triethylamine (0.181 ml) and phenyl chloroformate (0.163 ml) were added while stirring and cooling in an ice water bath. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm up to room temperature and stirred for 30 min. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate (50 ml) and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogencarbonate (30 ml). The separated organic layer was washed with water (30 ml) and brine (30 ml) in this order, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure. To the residue was added N,N-dimethylformamide (5 ml), and azetidine monohydrochloride (203 mg) and triethylamine (0.483 ml) were added, followed by stirring overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, the resultant residue was partitioned after addition of ethyl acetate (50 ml) and a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride (30 ml). The separated organic layer was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride (30 ml), water (30 ml) and brine (30 ml), and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent; heptane:ethyl acetate=1:3, then ethyl acetate). Fractions containing the target compound were concentrated under reduced pressure to provide the roughly-purified titled compound as a pale yellow solid (118.7 mg).
