Hydrogen chloride-ethyl acetate → 1-{3-[2-(1-Benzothiophen-6-yl)ethoxy]propyl}-3-azetidinol hydrochloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

In 3.0 mL of ethyl acetate was dissolved 0.28 g of 1-{3-[2-(1-benzothiophen-6-yl)ethoxy]propyl}-3-azetidinol, and to the solution was added 0.35 mL of a 3.25 mol/L dried hydrogen chloride-ethyl acetate solution, after which the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Then, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain 0.30 g of 1-{3-[2-(1-benzothiophen-6-yl)ethoxy]propyl}-3-azetidinol hydrochloride as a light-yellow oil.
