Reaction Steps
A solution of diethyl N-(4-(((1,2-dihydro-1-oxo-3-pivalamidobenzo[f]-quinazolin-9-yl)methyl)amino)benzoyl)-L-glutamate (0.31 g, 0.49 mmol) in methanol (15 ml) and 1N NaOH (5 ml) was stirred under nitrogen at reflux for 1.5 hours and then allowed to cool. The solution was adjusted to pH 3 with 1N-HCl under nitrogen and the resulting precipitate was filtered under nitrogen, washed with water, and dried under high vacuum to give N-(4-(((3-amino-1,2-dihydro-1-oxobenzo[f]-quinazolin-9-yl)methyl)amino)benzoyl)-L-glutamic acid (0.22 g) as a white solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 300 MHz δ: 1.82-2.12 (m, 2H, glu CH2), 2.31 (t, J=7 Hz, 2H, glu CH2), 4.27-4.38 (m, 1H, glu CH), 4.50 (d, J =6 Hz, 2H, C9 --CH2), 6.55 (br s, 2H, NH2), 6.62 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H, Ar), 6.96 (t, J=6 Hz, 1H, ArNH), 7.26 (d, J=9 Hz, 1H, Ar), 7.44 (dd, J =8,2 Hz, 1H, Ar), 7.63 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H, Ar), 7.84 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H, Ar), 7.99 (d, J=9 Hz, 1H, Ar), 8.09 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H, glu NH), 9.157 (s, 1H, Ar), 11.14 (br s, 1H, N2H), 12.32 (br s, 2H, CO2H's). Anal. Calculated for C25H23N5O6H2O: C, 59.17; H, 4.97; N, 13.80. Found: 59.31; H, 4.90; N, 13.72.
