Ethanolamine → 13-aza-6-oxadispiro[4.2.4.I]tridecane

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-Aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid was converted to the methyl ester according to Method B1c, Step 1. The ester reduced to 1-hydroxymethylcyclopentanamine according to Method B1c, Step 2. The hydroxyethylamine was reacted with cyclopentanone according to Method B4d, Step 1 to give 6-aza-12-oxadispiro[4.1.4.2]tridecane. The oxazolidine was reduced according to Method B4d, Step 2 to give 1-(cyclopentylamino)-1-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentane. 4-Amino-3-ethylbenzonitrile was converted to 4-cyano-2-ethylformanilide according to Method A3a, Step 1. The formanilide was reacted with SOCl2 and SO2Cl2 according to Method A3a, Step 2 to give 4-cyano-2-ethylphenyl isocyanide dichloride. The substituted 2-hydroxyethylamine was reacted with 2-methyl-4-nitrophenyl isocyanide dichloride according to Method C7a to afford 1-cyclopentyl-2-(2-methyl-4-nitrophenylimino)-3-oxa-1-azaspiro[4.4]nonane.
