Methyl 4-(chlorocarbonyl)benzoate → Tert-butyl 2-(4-{[4-(methoxycarbonyl)benzoyl]amino}benzoyl)hydrazinecarboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 2-(4-aminobenzoyl)hydrazinecarboxylate (1.0 g, 3.98 mmol) in anhydrous pyridine (20 mL) was added dropwise methyl 4-(chlorocarbonyl)benzoate (TCI) (948 mg, 4.78 mmol) at rt. After 50 min, aminomethyl resin (Polymers Laboratories PL-AMS, 1.96 mmol/g, 960 mg) was added and the resulting mixture was stirred for 22 hrs at rt After filtration and rinsing the resin, water (160 mL) was added into the filtrate and a white solid precipitated out. Filtration and washing with water gave a white solid, which was dried under vacuo at 60° C. for 15 hrs. The title compound (1.41 g) was obtained as a white solid (85%) in 98.7% purity by HPLC (MaxPlot detection between 230 and 400 mn).
