Reaktionsschritte

The (3-hydroxymethyl-phenyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (1.67 g, 7.49 mmol) and triphenylphosphine (2.61 g, 9.96 mmol) were combined and dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (40 mL). Carbon tetrabromide (3.23 g, 9.74 mmol) was dissolved in acetonitrile (20 mL) and added dropwise to the reaction while stirring. After stirring for 5 h, the reaction was concentrated in vacuo to give a thick golden oil. Purification by flash column chromatography (Merck silica gel 60, 40-63 μm; 20% ethyl acetate/hexanes) afforded (3-bromomethyl-phenyl)-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (1.52 g, 78%) as a white powder: H1-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.53 (9H, s), 4.46 (2H, s), 6.47 (1H, bs), 7.06 (1H, d, J=7.2 Hz), 7.19-7.27 (2H, m), 7.51 (1H, s).
