Reaktionsschritte

Glacial acetic acid (0.2 mL) was added to a mixture of 4-ethynylbenzaldehyde (1 g, 7.5 mmol), pyrrolidine (1.2 mL, 15 mmol) and NaBH(OAc)3 (2.5 g, 11.5 mmol) in DCE (35 mL). The resulting mixture was stirred for 2 h at rt. The reaction was quenched with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (50 mL). The product was extracted into CH2Cl2 (2×100 mL), and the combined organic layer was washed with brine (25 mL), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo to give 1-(4-ethynylphenyl)pyrrolidine in quantitative yield. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ: 7.45 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 2H), 7.30 (d, J=8.3 Hz, 2H), 3.62 (s, 2H), 3.06 (s, 1H), 2.51 (bs, 4H), 1.80 (bs, 4H).
