Hydrogen Peroxide → HCID 54591945, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a cooled (0° C.) suspension of 6-(2-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-methylpropylamino)nicotinonitrile (75 mg, 0.28 mmol, 1.0 equiv) and K2CO3 (50 mg, 0.36 mmol, 1.3 equiv) in DMSO (1 mL) was added aq. H2O2 (250 uL, 30% by wt., 2.6 mmol, 9 equiv) by syringe. The reaction was allowed to warm to RT and stirred for 30 minutes. The resulting mixture was diluted with EtOAc and washed three times with satd. aq. LiCl and once with brine. The resulting solution was dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by silica gel chromatography (2%-10% MeOH/DCM) provided the title compound as an off-white foam (54 mg, 77%), (m/z [M+H]=288.1).
