1-Ethyl-3-(3'-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide → tert-Butyl (methyl(3-[6-(4-oxo-4H-1,3-benzothiazin-2-yl)-2-pyridyl]propanoyl]amino)acetate

Participants

Reaction Steps

3-[6-(4-oxo-4H-1,3-benzothiazin-2-yl)-2-pyridyl]propionic acid (0.35 g, 1.1 mmol) was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (4 ml), and N-methylglycine tert-butyl ester (0.24 g, 1.3 mmol), WSC (0.43 g, 2.2 mmol) and HOBt (0.31 g, 2.3 mmol) were successively added thereto. The reaction mixture was stirred for 20 hrs, concentrated under reduced pressure and combined with ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was recrystallized from ethanol-hexane to give the titled compound (0.33 g, 67%) as white crystals.
