Participants

Reaction Steps

Cesium carbonate (1.75 g, 5.4 mmol) was added to a solution of 4-nitro-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-one (800 mg, 4.5 mmol, described in Intermediate 31) and tert-butyl bromoacetate (0.791 mL, 5.4 mmol) in DMF (15 mL). After 18 h, the reaction was quenched with H2O (100 mL) and the solid precipitate was collected by filtration. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with CH2Cl2:MeOH—95:5, to give the title compound. MS: m/z=294 (M+1).
