Dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal → HCID 22605454, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4-(5H,11H-pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-10-carbonyl)-benzamide (1.25 g) from Example 45 and dimethylformamide dimethylacetal (20 ml) was refluxed for 4 hours and the volatiles removed in vacuo to give a solid. The solid was dissolved in dichloromethane and filtered through a short column of hydrous sodium magnesium silicate and further eluted with several volumes of dichloromethane. The combined organic phase was concentrated on a steam bath with the gradual addition of hexane until crystallization occurred. After cooling, the crystals were collected by filtration to yield the title compound (1.40 g), m.p. 232-234° C.
