A method for the preparation of multi-gramme quantities of N-methyl-d3-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide (Diazald-d3) and N-methyl-13C-N-nitroso-p-toluenesulfonamide (Diazald-13C) and their conversion to diazomethane-d2 and diazomethane-13C, respectively, is presented. This approach uses robust and reliable chemistry, and critically, employs readily commercially available and inexpensive methanol as the label source. Several reactions of labelled diazomethane are also reported, including alkene cyclopropanation, phenol methylation and α-diazoketone formation, as well as deuterium scrambling in the preparation of diazomethane-d2 and subsequent methyl esterification of benzoic acid.
本文介绍了一种制备多克量N-甲基-d3-N-亚硝基对甲苯磺酰胺(Diazald-d3)和N-甲基-13C-N-亚硝基对甲苯磺酰胺(Diazald-13C)及其分别转化为重氮甲烷-d2和重氮甲烷-13C的方法。该方法采用稳健可靠的化学反应,关键在于使用易于商业获取且价格低廉的甲醇作为标记源。此外,还报道了标记重氮甲烷的几种反应,包括烯烃环丙烷化、苯酚甲基化和α-重氮酮的形成,以及在制备重氮甲烷-d2过程中氘的交换,随后对苯甲酸进行甲酯化。
