Sodium Bicarbonate → 1-[(2'-Methoxyaminocarbonylbiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-2-butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxymethylimidazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 0.20 g of 1-[(2'-methoxyaminocarbonylbiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-2-butyl-4-chloro-5-(2-methoxyethoxymethoxymethyl)imidazole in 60 ml of 1.5M aqueous tetrafluoroboric acid/acetonitrile was stirred for 20 hours at 25°. The reaction mixture was poured into dilute sodium bicarbonate solution, and the resulting mixture was extracted with diethyl ether. The combined organic phases were washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. Column chromatography (elution: methanol/chloroform) provided 0.11 g of 1-[(2'-methoxyaminocarbonylbiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-2-butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxymethylimidazole. NMR (200 MHz, CDCl3) δ 11.31 (br s, 1H); 7.48 (m, 1H); 7.41-7.33 (m, 5H); 7.09 (d, 2H); 5.27 (br s, 3H); 4.32 (d, 2H); 3.44 (s, 3H); 2.49 (t, 2H); 1.48 (quint., 2H); 1.25 (sext., 2H); 0.80 (t, 3H).
