Acetic Anhydride → HCID 22405053, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-[[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]carbonylmethyl}-5-{4-[2-(4-methylphenyl)benzoylamino]benzoyl}-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,5-benzodiazepin-2(2H)-one (178 mg) and triethylamine (31 mg) in dichloromethane (4 ml) was added acetic anhydride (31 mg) and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1.5 hours. To the mixture was added 4-dimethylaminopyridine (10 mg) and acetic anhydride (10 mg), and then the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 15 minutes. The resulting mixture was diluted with dichloromethane and the organic layer was washed successively with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and brine. Drying, filtering and the removal of solvents afforded a crude product. The crude product was triturated with a mixture of diethyl ether and n-hexane (1:1) to give 1-{[4-(2-acetoxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]-carbonylmethyl)-5-{4-[2-(4-methylphenyl)benzoylamino]-benzoyl}-1,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,5-benzodiazepin-2(2H)-one (205 mg) as a slightly-yellow powder.
