Reaction Steps

1.2 g of 3-[1-methyl-4-[1-methyl-4-[1-methyl-4-nitropyrrole-2-carboxamido]pyrrole-2-carboxamido]pyrrole-2-carboxamido]propionitrile (prepared as reported in J.Med.Chem 22,1296-1301,1979) was suspended in dry ethanol and the solution saturated with dry hydrogen chloride. After 24 hours at room temperature, the solvent was evaporated in vacuum and the residue treated with two equivalents of solution of hydroxylamine in dry ethanol. After 24 hours at room temperature, the solvent was evaporated in vacuum and the residue purified by flash chromatography yielding 500 mg of 3-[1-methyl-4[1-methyl-4[1-methyl-4-nitropyrrole-2-carboxamido]pyrrole-2-carboxamido]pyrrole-2-carboxamido]propionamidoxime which was dissolved in a mixture of methanol-dioxane-10% hydrochloric acid (4:1:1) and reduced over Pd catalyst (10% on charcoal) in hydrogen atmosphere (50 psi) in a Parr apparatus. The solution obtained after filtration of the catalyst was evaporated in vacuum, and the solid residue suspended in dry ethanol, and filtered to yield 500 mg of intermediate.
