Sodium hydride → tert-butyl 8-[(2-chlorophenyl)sulfonyl]-6-methoxy-1-methyl-1,3,4,8-tetrahydro-2H-[1,4]oxazepino[6,7-e]indole-2-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

tert-Butyl 6-methoxy-1-methyl-1,3,4,8-tetrahydro-2H-[1,4]oxazepino[6,7-e]indole-2-carboxylate (Intermediate 36, 25 mg, 0.059 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (1 mL) and sodium hydride (60% in mineral oil, 4.0 mg, 0.15 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes before 2-chlorobenzenesulfonyl chloride (24 mg, 0.11 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature overnight and a few drops of water were added. The crude product was purified by preparative HPLC (XTerra C18, 50 mM NH4HCO3 pH 10-CH3CN) to give tert-butyl 8-[(2-chlorophenyl)sulfonyl]-6-methoxy-1-methyl-1,3,4,8-tetrahydro-2H-[1,4]oxazepino[6,7-e]indole-2-carboxylate (6 mg) which was dissolved in DCM (1 mL) and TFA (1 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours and evaporated to give the title compound (5.8 mg). MS m/z 407 [M+H]+.
