Abstract

A library of imidazolin-4-ones has been synthesized ­using poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) as soluble polymer support. The imidazolin-4-ones 6 or 7 were synthesized effectively by reaction of primary amine with PEG-supported carbodiimides 4, which were obtained from aza-Wittig reaction of PEG-supported iminophosphoranes 3 with isocyanates.

PEG-Supported Azide 2. A mixture of PEG-supported chloride 1 (10 mmol) and sodium azide (0.78 g, 12 mmol) in anhyd MeCN (100 mL) was stirred for 20 h at reflux under a nitrogen atmosphere. The mixture was filtered, the filtrate was condensed and Et2O was added to precipitate the PEG-supported azides 2. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 3.47-3.82 (s, PEG-OCH2CH2O), 3.92 (s, 2 H, CH2N), 4.34 (t, J = 6.4 Hz, 2 H, PEG-OCH2CH 2OCO). IR (KBr): 2108 (N3), 1744 (C=O), 1242 cm-1.

PEG-Supported Carbodiimide 4a. A solution of triphenylphosphine (2.62 g, 10 mmol) in anhyd CH2Cl2 (10 mL) was added dropwise under nitrogen at r.t. to a well-stirred solution of the PEG-supported azide 2 (10 mmol) in anhyd CH2Cl2 (100 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 1 h, then phenyl isocyanate (1.19 g, 10 mmol) was added at 0 °C. After the reaction mixture was stirred at r.t. for 2 h, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The PEG-supported carbodiimide 4a (Ar = Ph) was precipitated by addition of Et2O and was separated by simple filtration. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 3.48-3.64 (m, PEG-OCH2CH2O), 3.82 (s, 2 H, NCH2COO), 4.30 (t, J = 6.4 Hz, 2 H, PEG-CH2OCO). IR (KBr): 2144 (N=C=N), 1753 (C=O), 1242 cm-1.

Imidazolin-4-ones 6 and 7: A solution of primary amine (2 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5 mL) was added to PEG-supported carbodiimide 4 (2 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL), and the mixture was stirred for the time shown in Table [1] at r.t. The PEG was precipitated by addition of Et2O and was separated by simple filtration. The imidazolin-4-ones were obtained by recrystallization from a solvent mixture of hexane and CH2Cl2 (1:1-1:3) or by column chromatography on silica gel (EtOAc-PE, 1:3-1:1).
