Reaction Steps

5-(Bis {2-[(methylsulfonyl)oxy]ethyl}amino)-2,4-dinitrobenzoic acid (8) was heated under reflux in excess SOCl2 (60 mL) and catalytic DMF for 1 h. Evaporation under reduced pressure, followed by azeotroping in benzene, gave the crude acid chloride. This was dissolved in dry Me2CO and treated at 0° C. with 3-amino-1-propanol at 0° C. for 5 min. The mixture was acidified to pH 2-3 with 0.2 N HCl, concentrated to half volume, and then solid NaBr was added, followed by extraction with EtOAc (2×). Evaporation, and chromatography of the residue on silica gel, eluting with EtOAc/MeOH (9:1), gave 2-(5-{[(3-hydroxypropyl)amino]carbonyl}{2-[(methylsulfonyl)oxy]ethyl}-2,4-dinitroanilino)ethyl methanesulfonate (9b) (68%) as a yellow gum;
