Participants

Reaction Steps

In 10 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide was dissolved 0.336 g of (+)-1-(2,2-diethoxyethyl)-3-hydroxycarbonylmethyl-3-(N'-(4-methylphenyl)ureido)indolin-2-one. To the solution were added successively 0.108 g of 4-dimethylaminopyridine, 0.170 g of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride and 0.166 g of 4-bromobenzyl alcohol. The resulting mixture was stirred for 18 hours, followed by concentration. The concentrate was diluted with ethyl ether, washed successively with dilute hydrochloric acid and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogencarbonate. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated. The crude product was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=2/1) to give 0.219 g (48%) of the title compound as a white powder.
