4-Aminomethyltetrahydropyran → Methyl {3-nitro-4-[(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-ylmethyl)amino]phenyl}carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methyl (4-fluoro-3-nitrophenyl)carbamate (2.0 g, 9.32 mmol) and 4-aminomethyl tetrahydropyran (1.28 g, 11.2 mmol) were stirred in 50 mL of EtOH containing TEA (2.0 mL, 14.0 mmol) at 75° C. for 48 h. The solvent was evaporated. The residue was dissolved in EtOAc and washed with aqueous 5% KHSO4, saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution, brine and dried over anhydrous MgSO4. The crude product was purified by silica gel flash chromatography using 1:1/hexanes:EtOAc as eluent. Yield: 2.53 g (88%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CHLOROFORM-D): δ 1.42 (ddd, J=25.24, 12.06, 4.49 Hz, 2H), 1.73 (d, J=1.76 Hz, 1H), 1.76 (d, J=1.95 Hz, 1H), 1.88-2.01 (m, 1H), 3.22 (dd, J=6.74, 5.57 Hz, 2H), 3.42 (td, J=11.86, 2.05 Hz, 2H), 3.78 (s, 3 H), 4.01 (d, J=4.30 Hz, 1H), 4.04 (d, J=3.51 Hz, 1H), 6.48 (br.s, 1H), 6.85 (d, J=9.37 Hz, 1H), 7.65 (br.s, 1H), 8.03-8.09 (m, 2H).
