Reaction Steps

This compound was synthesized strictly under dry and inert reaction conditions. The compound 2-(2′-tert-butyl-di-metylsilyloxy-5′-bromomethylphenyl)benzotriazole (2.1 gms, 0.00501 M) was taken in one 25 mL capacity RB and dissolved in 8 mL dry dimethylformamide (DMF) under Argon atmosphere with stirring. In another two-necked RB, 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethyl-4-piperidinol (1.0356 gm, 0.00601 M) and sodium hydride (0.3 gms, 0.01252 M) were taken and dissolved in 6 mL dry DMF with stirring under Argon atmosphere. This reaction mixture was agitated for almost 60 min and then cooled to 4-8° C. To this reaction mixture the contents of the first RB was added gradually over a period of 30-60 min. This reaction mixture was further agitated for 2-4 hrs followed by refluxing the same for a period of 2-4 hrs. The contents of the RB were cooled to room temperature and further agitated for 4-6 hrs at room temperature. The solvent in the RB was evaporated under reduced pressure and the solid mass in the RB was dissolved in 15 mL water and repeatedly extracted with dichloromethane (4×10 mL). Dichloromethane was then evaporated under vacuum at 38° C. over a rotavapor to give pale yellow colored crystalline product 2-[2′-tert-butyldimetylsilyloxy -5′-methyleneoxy((1″, 2″, 2″, 6″, 6″-pentamethyl-4″-piperidinyl) phenyl )benzotriazole. The TLC showed very little amount of unreacted starting material. The crude yield was 2.22 gms (87%). The product was purified by recrystalization technique using an appropriate organic solvent to get (83%) yield of pure product.
