Hydrazine hydrate (1:1) → HCID 14011677, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.5 ml (30 mmol) of hydrazine hydrate in 7.5 ml of ethanol are added dropwise to a boiling solution of 5.05 g (10 mmol) of 1,4-dihydro-2,6-dimethyl-3-methoxycarbonyl-4-(2-nitrophenyl)-5-(2-phthalimidoethoxy)carbonylpyridine in 50 ml of ethanol. Boiling is continued for 2 hours and the reaction mixture is then cooled and concentrated by evaporation under vacuum. The residue is stirred up with 25 ml of 2N-hydrochloric acid for 30 minutes at room temperature and the precipitated solid is removed by suction filtration and the filtrate is adjusted to pH 10 with conc. ammonia. The product is extracted three times with 30 ml portions of methylene chloride and the organic phases obtained are then dried and concentrated by evaporation. 2.91 g (77%) of a yellow amorphous solid is obtained as residue which is used without further purification.
