Ammonium Chloride → HCID 23035203, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred and cooled (-70° C., 2-propanone/CO2 bath) solution of 5.7 parts of copper(I) iodide in 67.5 parts of tetrahydrofuran were added dropwise 37.5 parts of a methyllithium solution 1.6M in 1,1'-oxybisethane during a period of 15 minutes under nitrogen atmosphere. Upon complete addition, stirring was continued for 30 minutes at this low temperature. A mixture of 4.45 parts of 2,6-dichloro-α-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-(4,5-dihydro-3,5-dioxo-1,2,4-triazin-2(3H)-yl)benzeneacetyl chloride and 22.5 parts of tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise during a period of 30 minutes at -65° C. Upon completion, stirring was continued first for 2 hours at -60° C. and then for 1 hours at -20° C. A saturated ammonium chloride solution in water was added dropwise (exothermic reaction). The precipitate was filtered off and from the filtrate, the organic layer was dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified three times by column chromatography over silica gel: twice using a mixture of trichloromethane and methanol (95:5 and 98:2 by volume) and then a mixture of trichloromethane and ethyl acetate (92.5:7.5 volume) as eluents. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was stirred in acetonitrile. The product was filtered off, washed with 2,2'-oxybispropane and dried, yielding 0.8 parts (18.8%) of 2-[3,5-dichloro-4-[1-(4-chlorophenyl)-2-oxopropyl]phenyl]-1,2,4-triazine-3,5(2H,4H)-dione; mp. 208.4° C. (intermediate 42).
