- the reaction is effected in an inen aprotic polar coordinating solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, diethylether, dioxane, 2-dimethoxyethane, acetonitrile, dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulphoxide and the like, and under a dry, inert atmosphere such as argon.
- aprotic polar coordinating solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, diethylether, dioxane, 2-dimethoxyethane, acetonitrile, dimethyl formamide, dimethyl sulphoxide and the like
- a dry, inert atmosphere such as argon.
- the reaction is effected initially at a low temperature, for instance about -78°C, with the final phase of the reaction then being effected at ambient temperature.
- 6-Acetylimidazo[2,l-b]thiazoline (0.504g; 3mM) was dissolved in dry THF (50ml) and cooled to -78°C under an atmosphere of argon.
- a solution of lithium hexamethyldisilazide (IM solution in hexane; 3.0ml; 3.0mM) was added and stirring was continued at -78°C for 30min.
- the diastercoisomeric mixture of hemiaminals was dissolved in dry THF (25ml) and cooled to -20°C under an atmosphere of argon. To the stined solution was added 2,6- lutidine (0.163ml), followed by thionyl chloride (0.151ml). Stirring was continued at - 20°C for 15min. The resulting suspension was then filtered, washing the precipitate with THF. The filtrate was evaporated to yield the diastereoisomeric chlorides as a pale yellow oil, v ⁇ (CH 2 C1 2 ) 1760, 1680cm " 1.
- the t-butyldimethylsilyl ether from Preparation 3 (0.082g) was dissolved in dry THF (10ml) and stirred at room temperature for 64 hours with acetic acid (0.104g) and tetra-n-butyl ammonium fluoride (0.518ml of a IM solution in THF). The reaction solution was then diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with sat. sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and brine. The organic layer was dried (MgSO4) and evaporated at reduced pressure.
- the product from Preparation 5 was convened to the title compound by the procedure of Example 1.
- the white fluffy solid obtained after HP 20SS column chromatography was re-chromatographed over Biogel P-2, eluting with water, followed by further chromatography over HP 20SS eluting with a gradient of 0 to 10% ethanol-water.
- the pure product was obtained as a white fluffy solid, v max (KBr), 3415 (broad), 1750, 1602 (shoulder) 1558cm" 1 ; ⁇ max (H 2 O) 31 lnm (e m 15,585).
- Ethyl l-methyl-2-methylthioimidazole-4-carboxylate (7.0 g, 35 mM) was dissolved in EtOH (400 ml) and aqueous 2M NaOH (18.4 ml, 36.7 mM) was added. The mixture was heated to reflux for 2.5 h. The solvent was then removed by evaporation in vacua to give a white solid which was dried overnight at 40°C / 1 mmHg to give crude sodium l-methyl-2-methylthioimidazole-4-carboxylate suitable for further use.
- N-Methoxy-l,N-dimethyl-2-methylthioimidazole-4-carboxamide (5.6 g, 26 mM) was dissolved in dry THF (90 ml) and the solution cooled in an ice bath under an atmosphere of argon. A solution of MeMgBr (3M in Et O) (10.4 ml, 31.2 mM) was added over 10 min. The cooling bath was then removed and the mixture stirred for 1.75 h. A mixture of EtOH (14 ml) and 5M hydrochloric acid (2.6 ml) was added and stirring continued for 30 min. The solvents were then removed by evaporation in vacuo and the residue partitioned between EtOAc and saturated aqueous NaHCO3.
- the product from Preparation 8 (0.182 g; 0.42 mM) was dissolved in THF (10 ml) and treated with 0.05M hydrochloric acid (5 ml; 0.25 mM). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperatures for 15 min. then neutralised by the addition of sat'd. aq. sodium hydrogen carbonate. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc, the extracts combined, washed with sat'd. brine, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure.
