3-Chlorobenzaldehyde → Methyl 4-((3-chlorobenzyl)amino)butanoate hydrochloride

Temperatur

20 °C

To a solution of 4-amino-butyric acid methyl ester hydrochloride (30 g, 1 eq.) in 360 mL of THF were added TEA (67.7 mL, 2.5 eq.), then 3-chlorobenzaldehyde (19 mL, 0.9 eq.) and MgSO4 (35 g, 1.5 eq.). The reaction was stirred at 20° C. for 15 h under nitrogen. 360 mL of MeOH was added then the reaction was cooled to −20° C. NaBH4 (14.75 g, 2 eq.) was added portionwise. The reaction was stirred for 1 h at 0° C. The crude was partially concentrated under reduced pressure at 20° C., filtered and washed with DCM. The filtrate was washed with water and brine. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure at 20° C. The residue, in solution in 1600 mL of Et2O, was treated with 87 mL of HCl 2N in Et2O. A solid was formed, filtrated, washed with Et2O, then pentane and dried to afford 4-(3-chloro-benzylamino)-butyric acid methyl ester hydrochloride (32 g, yield=65%).
