Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of the compound 91 (0.42 g) in ethanol (25 ml) was treated with an aqueous NaOH solution (3 M, 25 mL) and the reaction mix was refluxed for 24 hours. The reaction was cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate, and treated with cold distilled water. The layers were separated and the aqueous fraction was extracted 5 times with ethyl acetate and the combined organic fractions were dried, concentrated and purified by preparatory column chromatography yielding 2,3-dihydro-2-(5-propyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1H-indole. b) A solution of 2,3-dihydro-2-(5-propyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1H-indole (0.00017 mole) in DCM (5 ml) was treated with N-ethyl-N-(1-methylethyl)-2-propanamine (0.00072 mole) then (2-fluoro-2-oxoethyl)-9H-fluoren-9-yl-carbamic acid methyl ester (0.00070 mole). The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 15 hours. The reaction was diluted with DCM, treated twice with saturated NaHCO3, and dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated. The residue was subjected to reverse phase prep column chromatography to obtain 0.02 g of the desired mono-adduct and 0.02 g of a bis-adduct that was completely converted to the desired mono-adduct by treatment with the prep chromatography eluent (0.1% trifluoroacetic acid in water/acetonitrile). These were combined, yielding 0.03 g of H-fluoren-9-ylmethyl[2-[2,3-dihydro-2-(5-propyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1H-indol-1-yl]-2-oxoethyl]-carbamate. c) A solution of H-fluoren-9-ylmethyl[2-[2,3-dihydro-2-(5-propyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1H-indol-1-yl]-2-oxoethyl]-carbamate (0.00006 mole) in DCM (10 ml) was treated with piperidine (0.010 mole) and stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The completed reaction was concentrated in vacuo and subjected to reverse phase prep column chromatography, yielding 0.02 g of 2,3-dihydro-β-oxo-2-(5-propyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-1H-indole-1-ethanamine trifluoroacetate (1:1) (compound 92).
