apply | (1R,4R)-2, 5-diazabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester is a commonly used pharmaceutical intermediate, which can be synthesized from (1R,4R)-2-(benzyl)-2, 5-diazabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane dihydrobromate as raw material (1R,4R)-2-(benzyl)-2, 5-diazabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane dihydrobromide, then debenzyl to obtain (1R,4R)-2, 5-diazabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester. |
preparation | step A:(4S,2R)-4-methanesulfonyloxy-2-methanesulfonyloxymethyl-pyrrolidine -1- carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester. To 4-hydroxy-2-hydroxymethyl-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (10.85g,50.0mmol) in pyridine (50ml) over 20 minutes methanesulfonyl chloride (10.8mL,140mmol) was added to the solution. After stirring for 16 h, the reaction mixture was concentrated to dryness, diluted with a saturated aqueous solution of Na2CO3 and extracted with EtOAc(2x). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated to give the title compound as a slowly solidifying oil (14.4g,84%). Step B:(1R,4R)-2, 5-diazabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester. (4S,2R)-4-methanesulfonyloxy-2-methanesulfonyloxymethyl-pyrrolidine-L-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1G, 2.7mmol) the heterogeneous mixture in ammonium hydroxide (27 wt% aqueous solution, 10ml) was warmed to 65 °c in a sealed tube for 16 hours during which time the mixture became homogeneous. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2(2x) and the combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated to give (1R,4R)-2, 5-diazabicyclo [2.2.1] heptane-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as a yellow solid (66% mg,). |
