Hydrochloric Acid → Ethyl (2-amino-5-(thiophen-2-yl)phenyl)carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of tert-butyl ethyl (4-(thiophen-2-yl)-1,2-phenylene)dicarbamate (0.10 g, 0.28 mmol, 1.0 equiv.) in MeOH (2 mL) at 0° C. was added a 4M solution of HCl in dioxane (1.5 mL). The reaction was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 2 h, The reaction was concentrated under reduced pressure. A saturated aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate was added. The obtained solid was filtered, washed with water and dried. The crude material was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, 15% EtOAc/hexanes) to give ethyl (2-amino-5-(thiophen-2-yl)phenyl)carbamate (0.05 g, 69% yield).
