8-Isopropoxy-7-methoxy-4(5H),10-dioxo-1H-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-c][1]benzazepine (a) To a solution of diisopropylamine (5.0 ml, 36.0 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (75 ml) was added, at -78° C. under an argon atmosphere, 1.5 N butyllithium (22.6 ml, 33.8 mmol). The mixture was stirred for one hr. Ethyl propiolate (2.9 ml, 28.2 mmol) and a solution of 5-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-nitrobenzaldehyde (4.5 g, 18.8 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml) were added in that order, and the mixture was stirred at -78° C. for additional 1.5 hr. A solution of acetic acid (5.9 ml, 102 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was added to the reaction mixture. After water was added, the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with dilute hydrochloric acid, water, a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, and saturated brine in that order. It was then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give ethyl 4-(5-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)-4-hydroxy-2-butynoate as an oil (7.27 g). Ethyl 4-(5-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)-4-hydroxy-2-butynoate was dissolved in toluene (60 ml), 4-methoxybenzylazide (9.2 g, 56.4 mmol) was added to the solution, and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature, and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (hexane:ethyl acetate=1:2) to give a 1:1 mixture (7.01 g, 75%) of ethyl 4-(1-hydroxy-(5-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)methyl)-1-1(4-methoxybenzyl)-1,2,3-triazole-5-carboxylate (a-1: low polar product (LP)) and ethyl 5-(1-hydroxy-(5-isopropoxy-4-methoxy-2-nitrophenyl)methyl)-1-(4-methoxybenzyl)-1,2,3-triazole-4-carboxylate (a-2: high polar product (MP)).
