Reaction Steps

N-[(4-chloro-1-guanidino-7-isoquinolinyl)sulphonyl]cycloleucine trifluoroacetate ##STR48## NaH (1.12 g, 80% dispersion by wt in mineral oil, 37.3 mmol) was added portionwise to a stirred suspension of guanidine hydrochloride (5.85 g, 59.4 mmol) in DMSO (320 mL) and the mixture was heated at 30-50° C. under N2 for 30 min. N-[(1,4-Dichloro-1-guanidino-7-isoquinolinyl)sulphonyl]-cycloleucine ethyl ester (6.2 g, 14.9 mmol) was added in one portion and the mixture heated at 80° C. for 8 h. The cooled mixture concentrated in vacuo to ca. 160 mL and poured into water (800 mL). The aqueous mixture was extracted with EtOAc (4×150 mL) and the combined organic extracts were then washed with water, brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by column chromatography upon silica gel using CH2Cl2 -MeOH-0.880NH3 (95:5:0.5 to 90:10:1) as eluant and then recrystallised from EtOAc to give N-[(4-chloro-1-guanidino-7-isoquinolinyl)sulphonyl]cyclo-leucine ethyl ester (1.43 g, 3.25 mmol) as a yellow solid.
