Ammonium Hydroxide → (3RS)-3-amino-2,3-dihydro-5-(2-fluorophenyl)-1-(4-methyl-pyridin-2-yl) methyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (3RS)-3-tert-butoxycarbonylamino-2,3-dihydro-5-(2-fluorophenyl)-1-(3-hydroxycarbonylpyridin-2-yl) methyl-1H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one (0.71 g) in tetrahydrofuran (20 ml) was treated with dicyclohexylcalbodiimide (0.29 g) and 1-hydroxybenzotriazole monohydrate (0.215 g) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred for 2 hours at the same condition. To the mixture was added dropwise a solution of ammonium hydroxide (28% ammonia in water, 0.359 g) in tetrahydrofuran (1 ml) at ambient temperature under stirring. The mixture was stirred overnight at ambient temperature. The resultant mixture was concentrated in vacuo, and the residue was taken up with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a brine and dried over sodium sulfate. Filtration and evaporation gave a crude product. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel with a mixture of chloroform and methanol to afford (3RS)-1-(3-aminocarbonylpyridin-2-yl)methyl-3-tert-butoxycarbonyl-amino-2,3-dihydro-5-(2-fluorophenyl)-1H,-1,4-benzodiazepin-2-one (0.32 g) as a yellow form.
