Supporting information
2-Hydroxy- pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]benzodiazepine-5,11-dione (0.5 g, 2.15 mmol), ethyl bromoacetate (0.45 ml, 4.3 mmol), potassium carbonate (0.6 g, 4.3 mmol) along with a catalytic amount of tetra-n-butyl ammonium bromide were stirred in N,N-dimethylformamide (20 ml) for 24 h. After the completion of the reaction (monitored by TLC), the solid material was removed by filtration and the solvent evaporated under vacuum. Dichloromethane (20 ml) was added and the solution filtered. The solvent was removed and the product purified by recrystallization from ethanol to afford colorless crystals in 80% yield.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.93-0.98 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2–1.5U(C). The oxygen-bound H-atom was located in a difference Fourier map, and was refined isotropically with a distance restraint of O–H = 0.84±0.01 Å. Due to the absence of anomalous scatterers Friedel pairs were merged and the absolute configuration was arbitrarily set.

Special details top Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
