Abstract
Pentadeuteriophenyl clobazam 5 was synthesized in essentially quantitative isotopic purity, and characterized by ^1^HโNMR and mass spectroscopy. The title compound was found to be โฅ98% pure by HPLC, and its retention time (t~R~ 6.17 min) was less than that of an authentic clobazam standard (t~R~ 6.32 min). Of the five steps in the synthesis of 5, the most susceptible to deuterium exchange was the nucleophilic substitution of 2,4โdichloronitrobenzene by anilineโd~7~ to form Nโ(5โchloroโ2โnitrophenyl)pentadeuteriophenylamine 2. In this step, the isotopic impurity anilineโ2,3,4,5,โd~5~ introduced protons from nitrogen into the ortho and para positions of the deuteriophenyl ring of 2.
