反応手順

In a 500 mL two-necked flask equipped with a thermometer and a pressure-equalizing dropping funnel, NaBH4 (5.33 g, 0.140 mol) was suspended in 1,4-dioxane/ethanol (100 mL/30 ml). ≈-Nitrostyrene (3, 10.0 g, 67.0 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (100 mL) was added dropwise to the solution over 45 minutes, keeping the temperature below 30° C. A fine slurry formed during the addition. After the addition the reaction mixture was stirred overnight, then ice/water (125 mL) was added, and a 50% solution of acetic acid was added to neutralize excess NaBH4; the clear solution was then concentrated in vacuo and the residue was dissolved in water and extracted twice with CH2Cl2. The organic phase was washed with water (2×30 mL) and brine (1×30 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo obtaining 4 (8.40 g, 83%) as yellow oil. ESI-MS: 152 (MH+) (Calc. for C8H9NO2: 151).
