Dichloromethane → 1-carbobenzyloxy-3-(2-(4-(1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)[1,4]diazepan-1-yl) ethyl)-3-phenylpyrrolidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Alternately, combine 1-carbobenzyloxy-3-phenyl-3-(2-methanesulfonyloxyethyl)pyrrolidine (5.7 g, 14.1 mmol), 4-(1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)[1,4]diazepane hydriodic acid salt (7.52 g, 213.8 mmol), and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (9.6 mL, 55 mmol) in acetonitrile (200 mL). Heat to reflux. After 18 hours, evaporate in vacuo to give a residue. Combine the residue and dichloromethane. Extract twice with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and then brine. Dry the organic layer over Na2SO4, filter, and evaporate in vacuo to give residue. Chromatograph the residue on silica gel eluting sequentially with ethyl acetate and then 5% methanol/dichloromethane to give 1-carbobenzyloxy-3-(2-(4-(1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)[1,4]diazepan-1-yl)ethyl)-3-phenylpyrrolidine: Rf=0.38 (silica gel, 5% methanol/dichloromethane).
