Acetic Anhydride → Ammonia methanol dichloromethane

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-(2-{3-[(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)(1-methylpiperidin-4-yloxy)-methyl]phenylsulfanyl}ethyl)guanidine.dihydrochloride (100 mg) in dry acetonitrile (1 mL) is added acetic anhydride (64 mg) et 4-dimethylaminopyridine (51 mg). After 24 hours at room temperature, solvent and volatiles are removed under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by chromatography (toluene/acetone/triethylamine 50/50/1 then gradient dichloromethane/methanol/ammonia from 95/5/0.5 to 90/10/1) to give N-acetyl-N′-(2-{3-[(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)(1-methylpiperidin-4-yloxy)methyl]phenylsulfanyl}ethyl)guanidine.
