Acetyl chloride → N-[(5-nitro-3-pyridin-2-yl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-yl)methyl]acetamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Acetyl chloride (15 μL, 0.21 mmol) was added to a mixture of 1-(5-nitro-3-pyridin-2-yl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-yl)methanamine (50 mg, 0.2 mmol) in methylene chloride (3 mL), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (60 μL) and was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The reaction mixture was then partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give crude N-[(5-nitro-3-pyridin-2-yl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-yl)methyl]acetamide (0.040 g. 70%). LCMS calculated for C16H17N4O4 (M+H)+: m/z=329.1. found: 329.0.
