Acetyl chloride → HCID 86640028, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl[4-(hydrazinocarbonyl)-2-pyridyl]carbamate (1.01 g, 4.0 mmol) and triethylamine (0.832 mL, 6.0 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was added acetyl chloride (0.341 mL, 4.8 mmol) under ice-cooling, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. To this reaction mixture were added triethylamine (2.77 mL, 20 mmol) and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (1.53 g, 8.0 mmol), and the resulting mixture was heated under reflux for 20 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate/tetrahydrofuran. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by basic silica gel column chromatography (tetrahydrofuran), and washed with diethyl ether/methanol to give the title compound (448 mg, yield 41%) as pale-brown crystals.
