Potassium Carbonate → HCID 10430232, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Acetonitrile was added to a mixture of Compound 5A (about 1.0 mole), anhydrous potassium carbonate (about 1.5 moles) and tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate (about 0.05 mole). 2-bromoethyl acetate (about 1.5 moles) was added in three separate portions (0.72 mole in the beginning, another 0.45 mole after about 2 hours of reaction, and then the remaining 0.33 mole after about another 1 hour of reaction) during the course of the reaction at about 80-85° C. The total reaction time was about 7 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to about room temperature and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated. Aqueous isopropanol was added to crystallize the product. The product was filtered, washed with aqueous isopropanol, and dried to provide Compound 6A in about a 75-80% yield.
