Reaction Steps

Bromoacetyl bromide (0.22 g, 1.10 mmol) was added to N-Hydroxy-benzo[1,3]dioxole-5-carboxamidine (0.40 g, 0.55 mmol) and K2CO3 (0.38 g, 0.78 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated at 100° C. for 15 min. After the completion of the reaction mixture (TLC monitoring), water (25 mL) was added and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×50 mL). The combined organics was washed with water, brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated. The crude residue was purified over silica gel (60-120 M, 5% EtOAc-Hexane) to get the desired product (0.05 g, 31%).
