1-Chloroethyl chloroformate → HCID 59625895, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of compound 8b (3.4 g, 7.7 mmol) in CH2Cl2 was added 1-chloroethyl chloroformate (2.5 mL, 23.1 mmol) at 0° C. under a N2 atmosphere. The ice bath was removed and the reaction stirred for 2 h. The organic phase was concentrated under reduced pressure, and MeOH was added to the resultant residue. The reaction was refluxed for 2 h at which time the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was partitioned between chloroform and aqueous HCl (1N). The aqueous layer was separated, made basic with aqueous NaOH (3N), and extracted with chloroform. The organic layer was then dried (K2CO3), filtered and concentrated to afford compound 8c (2.65 g). MS m/z (M+H+) 276.
