Cyclohexylamine → HCID 131724641, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixed anhydride solution prepared from 200 mg (0.41 mmol) of borrelidin according to Example 3 234 μl (2 mmol, 203 mg) of cyclohexylamine were added. After stirring for 3 hours, the starting borrelidin (Rf=0.52) disappeared and the product (Rf=0.68) appeared, which was proved by thin-layer chromatography (silica gel plate, eluent system: chloroform/ethyl acetate 3:7). The reaction mixture was evaporated to dryness. The dry residue was dissolved in 100 ml of chloroform, washed with 3×30 ml of water, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to dryness. The dry residue was chromatographed on a silica gel column with mixtures of chloroform and methanol of increasing methanol content. The fractions containing the product eluting with a 96:4 eluting mixture were combined and evaporated to dryness. The structure of the thus-obtained solidifying oily product (205 mg) was confirmed by spectroscopic (PMR, CMR, TS) data.
