Ethyl bromoacetate → HCID 57148517, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2.0 g of 2-[4-[((3S)-1-tert-butoxycarbonyl-3-pyrrolidinyl)oxy]phenyl]-3-(6-cyano-2-indolyl)propanol was dissolved in 30 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide. 280 mg of 60% sodium hydride was added to the above solution while stirring under ice cooling, and the stirring was continued for 20 minutes at the same temperature. The resulting reaction solution was mixed with 0.5 ml of ethyl bromoacetate, and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour. The thus treated reaction solution was mixed with an aqueous solution of ammonium chloride, extracted with a toluene/ethyl acetate mixture, washed with water, and then dried. After distilling off the solvent, the resulting residue was purified by subjecting it to silica gel column chromatography using a dichloromethane/acetone mixture as an elution solvent. In this way, 1.5 g of the title compound was obtained in a viscous and oily form.
