Chloroacetyl chloride → 2-chloro-5-(5-(chloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-N-isopropylpyridin-4-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 6-chloro-4-(isopropylamino)nicotinohydrazide (10) (500 mg, 2 mmol) in DCM (10 mL), Et3N (6 mmol, 3 equiv.) and 2-chloroacetyl chloride (3 mmol, 1.5 equiv.) were added and stirred at room temperature for 4 h. Added tosyl chloride (3.2 mmol, 1.5 equiv.) was added at stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with DCM. The DCM layer was washed with 10% NaHCO3 solution followed by water. The organic layer was collected, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude material obtained was purified by column chromatography through silica gel and EtOAc: Pet. ether as eluent to afford the desired compound, 2-chloro-5-(5-(chloromethyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)-N-isopropylpyridin-4-amine LC/MS: Acquity BEH C18 2.1×50 mm, 1.8 micron; Solvent A=0.1% TFA in water; Solvent B=0.1% TFA in ACN; gradient 0-100% B over 2 min; retention time: 0.95 min; LCMS (ES-API), m/z 287.6 (M+H).
