Hydrochloric Acid → [4-(Aminomethyl)oxan-4-yl]methanamine

Temperature

-10 °C

Tetrahydro-pyran-4,4-dicarbonitrile (1.52 g) was dissolved in dry THF (25 mL) and cooled to −10° C. To this solution, BH3.THF (56 mL of an 1M solution in THF, 5 equiv.) was added dropwise, the mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature, and subsequently stirred at 60° C. for 6 h. The mixture was cooled in an ice bath, and HCl (24.2 mL of a 6M aqueous solution, 13 equiv.) was added. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 2 h. The mixture was neutralized with 2M aqueous NaOH and extracted three times with DCM. The aqueous layer was evaporated to dryness, the residue was stirred with CHCl3, the solids were filtered off and the organic phase was evaporated under reduced pressure to yield 1.0 g (62%) of a yellow oil. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.46 (t, 4H), 2.74 (s, 4H), 3.67 (t, 4H).
