The reaction of an ester with N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine and a suitable organomagnesium reagent or lithium amide base provides a general method for the preparation of N-methoxy-N-methylamides. Application in the direct conversion of a highly hindered ester to a ketone, the azasteroid 5α-reductase inhibitor MK-0434, is described.
New process for making 3-oxo-4-aza-androst-1-ene 17beta-ketones
-
, (2008/06/13)
Described is a new process for preparing 3-oxo-4-aza-androst-1-ene 17β-ketones. The process involves converting the corresponding 17β-alkyl carboxylate to the N-methoxy-N-methyl carboxamide and reacting this with an appropriate Grignard reagent to form the desired ketone. The reaction can be conducted in "one pot", thus eliminating isolation of intermediates and avoiding the use of less stable intermediates, e.g., acid chlorides, acyl imidazolides and the like.
Intermediate for making 3-oxo-4-aza-androst-1-ene 17β-ketones

Described is a new intermediate and new process for preparing 3-oxo-4-aza-androst-1-ene 17β-ketones. The process involves converting the corresponding 17β-alkyl carboxylate to the N-methoxy-N-methyl carboxamide and reacting this with an appropriate Grignard reagent to form the desired ketone. The reaction can be conducted in "one pot", thus eliminating isolation of intermediates and avoiding the use of less stable intermediates, e.g., acid chlorides, acyl imidazolides and the like. The intermediate has the formula: STR1 wherein R1 is hydrogen.
