Oxalyl chloride → Ethyl 6-chloro-7-(4-(1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-hydroxypropan-2-ylcarbamoyl)phenoxy)chroman-4-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(6-chloro-4-(ethoxycarbonyl)chroman-7-yloxy)benzoic acid (0.100 g, 0.2654 mmol) in dichloromethane (1.5 ml) and DMF (1 drop) was added oxalyl dichloride (0.02778 ml, 0.3185 mmol), and the reaction was stirred for 30 minutes. N-ethyl-N-isopropylpropan-2-amine (0.1112 ml, 0.6370 mmol) and 2-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)propan-1-ol (0.06405 g, 0.3450 mmol) were added, and the reaction was stirred for 16 hours. The reaction was diluted with EtOAc and washed with 1M hydrochloric acid, saturated sodium bicarbonate, and saturated sodium chloride. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated. The crude material was purified on a Biotage SP1 system eluting with 25-100% EtOAc in hexanes to yield 111 mg of the title compound (76.82% yield).
