40.03; 61.39; 66.79; 127.96; 128.01; 128.42; 136.36; 156.28; 169.67. MS: 254.1 ([M H] ).
2-{[(Benzyloxy)carbonyl]amino}[1-13C]acetaldehyde (12) LiA lH (1.0m in THF; 18 ml, 18.0 mmol) was
4
added to a mixture of 14 (5.04 g, 20.0 mmol) in THF (150 ml) at 08 under N2. The mixture was stirred at 08 for
1 h. Asoln. of KHSO (3.44 g, 25.3 mmol) in H2O (80 ml) was added, and THF was removed under reduced
4
pressure. The residue was extracted with CHCl3 (4 Â 75 ml). The combined org. layers were washed with 1m aq.
HCl soln., NaHCO3 (100 ml), and brine (100 ml), and dried (MgSO4). Evaporation of the solvent in a rotary
evaporator gave 12 (3.14 g, 80%). 1H-NMR (CDCl3): 4.04 (d, J 5.2, 2 H); 5.11 (s, 2 H); 5.65 (br. s, 1 H); 7.30
(m, 5 H). 13C-NMR (CDCl3): 57; 62.14; 128.12; 128.24; 128.48; 136.33; 156.28; 196.46. MS: 195.1 ([M H] ).
2-Amino[1-13C]acetaldehyde Dimethyl Acetal (15). Amixture of 12 (1.3 g, 5 mmol), trimethyl orthofor-
mate (20 ml), MeOH (10 ml), and conc. H2SO4 (one drop) was stirred at r.t. for 2 d. K2CO3 (0.5 g) was added,
and, after stirring for 1 h, the solid was filtered off, and the filtrate was used without further purification. An
anal. sample was purified by FC (Et2O/pentane 1:1). 1H-NMR (CDCl3): 3.28 (dd, J 139.2, 5.4, 2 H); 3.35 (s,
3 H); 3.36 (s, 3 H); 4.36 (t, J 5.4, 1 H), 4.61 (br. s, 1 H); 5.08 (s, 2 H); 7.35 (m, 5 H). 13C-NMR (CDCl3): 44.09;
680.7; 104.36; 129.44; 129.52; 129.98; 138.47; 157.81. MS: 255.1 ([M H] ).
Ethyl 2-({2-[(2,2-Dimethoxy[2-13C]ethyl)amino]-1,2-dioxoethyl}amino)acetate (16). Ethyl 2-[(2-ethoxy-
1,2-dioxoethyl)amino]acetate (1.1 g, 5.5 mmol) and Et3N (0.77 ml, 5.6 mmol) were added to an i-PrOH soln. of
15 (4.8 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred at r.t. for 18 h, concentrated, and purified by FC (hexane/
AcOEt 85 :15) to yield 16 (2.1 g, 98%). Oil. The spectral data are in agreement with those reported in the
literature [13a]. MS: 423.1 ([M H] ).
6-Chloro-3-{[2,2-difluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]amino}-1-({N-[(3-fluoropyridin-2-yl)methyl]carbamoyl}-
methyl) [6-13C]pyrazin-2(1H)-one (2). [13C]-labeled-16 (2 g) was converted to 2 (123 mg, 6% overall yield for six
steps) using literature procedure [13a].
6-Chloro-3-{[2,2-difluoro-2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl]amino}-1-({N-[(3-fluoropyridin-2-yl)methyl]carbamoyl}-
methyl) [5-13C]pyrazin-2(1H)-one (3). 2-[13C]-glycine (5 g) was converted to 3 (114 mg) using the same method
as for preparation of 2.
