Reaction Steps

2-Chloro-4-nitro-1H-imidazole (1.08 g, 7.31 mmol), tert-butyl N-methyl-[1-(2-methyloxiran-2-yl-methyl)piperidin-4-yl]carbamate (2.08 g, 7.31 mmol) and sodium acetate (660 mg, 8.04 mmol) in 1-propanol (15 ml) were stirred under reflux overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was added water, and the mixture was extracted with methylene chloride. The organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate and then filtered. The resulting filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (methylene chloride/methanol=200/1), crystallized from methylene chloride-isopropyl ether to afford tert-butyl N-methyl-[1-(2-methyl-6-nitro-2,3-dihydroimidazo[2,1-b]oxazol-2-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl]carbamate (348 mg, yield 12%) as a white powder.
