Application of 26663-77-4,Some common heterocyclic compound, 26663-77-4, name is Methyl benzimidazole-5-carboxylate, molecular formula is C9H8N2O2, traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc, below Introduce a new synthetic route.
To a solution of methyl 1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carboxylate (0.90 g, 5.1 mmol) in DMF(20 ml) was added NaH (0.25 g, 6.2 mmol), and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 mm. Then (2-(chloromethoxy)ethyl)trimethylsilane (0.94 g, 5.6 mmol) wasadded and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. When LCMS showed that the reaction completed, the reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (100 mL), washed with H20 (100 mL x 2) and brine (100 mL), dried over Na2504 and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford crude product as an oil, which was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluted with petroleum ether/EtOAc = 1:1) to afford mixture ofmethyl 1 -((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)- 1 H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carboxylate and methyl 1- ((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy) methyl)- 1 H-benzo [d] imidazole-6-carboxylate as an oil. LC/MS (m/z): 307 (M+H).To a solution of LiA1H4 (0.30 g, 7.8 mmol) in THF (20 ml) was added solution of Step A product (1.2 g, 3.9 mmol) in THF (30 mL) at 0C, the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 3 hours. When TLC showed that the reaction completed, the reaction mixture was quenched with sat. aq. NH4C1 (50 mL) and the mixture was filteredthrough a pad of celite. The filtrate was extracted with EtOAc (100 mL), washed with H20 (100 mL) and brine (100 mL), dried over Na2504 and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford mixture of (1 -((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)- 1 H-benzo [d] imidazol-5-yl) methanol and (1- ((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)- 1 H-benzo[d]imidazol-6-yl)methanol as an oil, which was used in next step without further purification. ?H NMR (CDC13, 400 MHz) oe 8.03 (s, 1H), 8.02(s, 1H), 7.86-7.79 (m, 2H), 7.64 (s, 1H), 7.61-7.55 (m, 1H), 7.43 (d, J= 7.3 Hz, 1H), 7.36 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 1H), 5.59 (s, 4H), 4.90 (s, 2H), 4.87 (s, 2H), 3.59-3.53 (m, 4H), 0.99-0.91 (m, 4H), 0.00 (s, 9H).To a solution of Step B product (0.3 g, 1.1 mmol) in DCM(10 ml) was added SOC12 (0.8 ml, 10.8 mmol) dropwise at 0C, then the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. When TLC showed that the reaction completed, the reaction mixture was diluted with DCM (50 mL), washed with sat. aq. NaHCO3 (50 mL) and brine (50 mL), dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford a mixture of 5-(chloromethyl)-1-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)- 1 H-benzo[d] imidazole and 6-(chloromethyl)- 1 -((2- (trimethylsilyl) ethoxy)methyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole as an oil, which was used in next step without further purification. LC/MS (m/z): 297 (M+H).To a solution of Intermediate 2 (0.20 g, 0.65 mmol), Step C product (0.29 g, 0.97 mmol) in acetone (4 ml) and DMF (2 ml) was added K2C03(0.27 g, 1.9 mmol). The reaction mixture was then heated to 60 C and stirred for 6 hours. When LCMS showed that the reaction completed, the reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (1 OOmL), washed with H20 (100 mL)and brine (100 mL), dried over Na2504 and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford crude product as an oil, which was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (eluted with Petroleum ether/EtOAc = 1:1) to afford a mixture of tert-butyl 2-(4-hydroxy-2-oxo-1-((1-((2- (trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)- 1 H-benzo[d]imidazol-5 -yl)methyl)- 1,2,5 ,7-tetrahydrofuro [3,4- b]pyridine -3 -carboxamido)acetate and tert-butyl 2-(4-hydroxy-2-oxo- 1 -((1 -((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)- 1 H-benzo[d]imidazol-6-yl) methyl)- 1,2,5,7- tetrahydrofuro [3,4- b]pyridine-3-carboxamido)acetate as a solid. LC/MS (m/z):To a solution of HC1 in dioxane (4M, 20 mL) was added Step D product (140 mg, 0.25 mmol), followed by H20 (5 mL), then the reaction mixture was heated to 90 C and stirred for 4 hours. When LCMS showed that the reaction completed, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford crude product as a solid. The crude product was triturated withMTBE (10 mL), and the title compound was collected by suction as a powder. ?H NMR(DMSO-d6, 400 MHz) oe 10.24 (t, J= 4.8 Hz, 1H), 9.48 (s, 1H), 7.80 (d, J= 8.4 Hz, 1H), 7.67 (s,1H), 7.44 (d, J= 8.4 Hz, 1H), 5.24 (br s, 2H), 5.02 (br s, 2H), 4.93 (br s, 2H), 4.06 (d, J= 4.9 Hz,2H).
