Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution comprising [2-(1H-Tetrazol-5-yl)-ethyl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (EP 449523) (0.125 g, 0.586 mmol) in DMF (5 ml) is added caesium carbonate (0.23 g, 0.703 mmol) followed by 1-bromo-2-fluoroethane (0.174 ml, 2.344 mmol) and the reaction mixture is left to stir at room temperature for 3 days. The solvent is removed in vacuo and the crude residue is purified by flash silica chromatography (elution 3:2 increasing to 1:4 hexane/ethyl acetate) to afford the titled compound and {2-[1-(2-Fluoro-ethyl)-1H-tetrazol-5-yl]-ethyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester.
