Participants

Reaction Steps

To a cooled (ice bath) solution of (4S,6S)-4-(2,3-difluorophenyl)-4-methyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-2-amine (4.94 g, 16.79 mmol) in sulfuric acid (20 ml, 375 mmol) was added sodium nitrate (1.855 g, 21.83 mmol) in one portion. After stirring for 15 min, ice bath was removed, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water containing potassium carbonate (18g). The resulting suspension was extracted with EtOAc (2×). The organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4 and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated and purified by silica gel column (10-60% EtOAc/hexane) to afford (4S,6S)-4-(2,3-difluoro-5-nitrophenyl)-4-methyl-6-(trifluoromethyl)-5,6-dihydro-4H-1,3-oxazin-2-amine (5.6 g, 16.51 mmol, 98% yield) as light yellow solid in 91% pure. MS m/z=340.1 [M+H]+. Calculated for C12H10F5N3O3: 339.2
