반응 단계

To solution of Cyclam (0.913 g, 4.5 mmol) dissolved in a mixture of ethanol:water (5:1 by vol.) (18 ml) was added a solution of 4-chloromethylbenzoic acid (0.157 g, 0.92 mmol) in aqueous LiOH (53 mg in 4 ml of water). This mixture was thereafter refluxed vigorously with stirring for 5 hours. Then the solvent was removed at reduced pressure, and the residue was dissolved in 13 ml of water. The aqueous solution obtained was then extracted with chloroform (10 times 3 ml) and the aqueous layer was concentrated at reduced pressure down to 2 ml. The product as a white solid was precipitated by adding the solution of concentrated HCl and ethanol and purified by recrystallizing from ethanol/water/HCl to yield 0.205 g of the title compound. According to the LC-MS, the assay of 4-(1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradec-1-ylmethyl)-benzoic acid hydrochloride was >95%.
