関与物質

反応手順

To benzonitrile (1.03 g, 10 mmol) in ether (50 ml) at −70° C. was added Ti(OiPr)4 (3.22 ml, 11 mmol) and EtMgBr (3M in ether, 7.34 mL, 22 mmol) dropwise, the resulting yellow suspension was warmed up to room temperature over 1 h. After stirring for additional 30 min, the dark brown solution was added BF3.Et2O (2.47 mL, 20 mL) at room temperature. The mixture was further stirred for 1 h, and was quenched by 1N HCl (30 mL) and 5N NaOH (30 mL), the suspension was extracted with ether, ether layer was combined, concentrated to give crude residue, which was purified by column (Hexanes/EtOAc, 2:1 to 1:9) to give 1-phenylcyclopropanamine (420 mg).
