Reaction Steps

A solution of 1.30 gm (6.50 mmol) of 2-amino-3-chlorobenzyl acetate, 4.11 gm (52.0 mmol) of pyridine and 5.0 ml of acetonitrile was treated with 1.61 gm (6.50 mmol) of 5,7-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-2-sulfonyl chloride and the resulting mixture stirred at 25° C. for 120 hours. An additional 0.53 gm (2.2 mmol) of the sulfonyl chloride was added and stirring at 25° C. continued for an additional 24 hours. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate evaporated to provide a brown oil. The oil was then dissolved in 40 ml of m ethylene chloride and stirred with 25 ml of 0.5M NaOH. After 5 minutes, the aqueous phase was separated, washed with ether and acidified with 3N HCl. A light brown solid was collected, washed with water, dried and recrystallized from acetonitrile to provide 0.35 gm (13%) of the desired product as a solid, m.p. 214°-217° C., containing approximately 10% of an impurity. IR and 1H NMR spectra were in agreement with the assigned structure.
