4-Toluenesulfonyl chloride → N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N-(2-tosyloxyethyl)-1-amino-2-methylprop-2-ene

Participants

Reaction Steps

N-(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)glycine tert-butyl ester was reacted with 3-bromo-2-methylpropene according to Method B8b, Step 1 to give N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N-(2-methylprop-2-enyl)glycine tert-butyl ester. The ester was reduced according to Method B8b, Step 2 to give N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-amino-2-methylprop-2-ene. The alcohol was treated with p-toluenesulfonyl chloride according to Method B8b, Step 3 to give N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-N-(2-tosyloxyethyl)-1-amino-2-methylprop-2-ene. The carbamate was deprotected according to Method B8b, Step 4 to give N-(2-tosyloxyethyl)-2-methylprop-2-en-1-ammonium trifluoroacetate. The tosylate was reacted with 2-methyl-4-nitrophenyl isocyanate according to Method C5a to afford 2-(2-methyl-4-nitrophenylimino)-3-(2methylprop-2-enyl)-1,3-oxazolidine.
