m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → HCID 13260598, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A quantity of 3.58 gm (0.01 mol) 6-[4-(2-pyridylmercapto)-butoxy]-4,4-dimethyl-4H-3,1-benzoxazin-2-one is dissolved in 100 ml of chloroform and mixed with 4.3 gm (0.025 mol) of m-chloroperbenzoic acid, under stirring. After stirring for two hours, a further 2 gm of m-chloroperbenzoic acid are added, and the mixture is left to stand overnight. The chloroform phase is extracted with water, the organic phase is dried with sodium sulfate, and the chloroform is distilled off. The non-uniform residue is purified by column chromatography [silica gel, particle size of 0.05 to 0.2 mm; chloroform/ethanol (40:1)]. The uniform fractions are combined, and the residue is triturated with ethyl acetate/ether. The crystals thus obtained are subjected to suction filtration and dried at 50° C.
