Pyridine → N,N-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxopropanamide

反応手順

Pyruvic acid (1.00 g, 11.34 mmol) was placed in a 250 mL three-necked round-bottomed flask fitted with a stirring bar, reflux condenser and a nitrogen inlet, and dissolved in 30 mL anhydrous THF at room temperature. Then, SOCl2 (2.03 g, 17.01 mmol) was added dropwise with stirring in 3 hours at room temperature. Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)amine (2.00 g, 8.72 mmol) was added under nitrogen protection. Pyridine (4.14 g, 52.3 mmol) were added to the mixture at 0° C. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux for 12 hours. The reaction was quenched by adding 30 mL of 2N HCl solution. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×20 mL). The organic layers were separated, washed with brine (20 mL) and dried over anhydrous MgSO4. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give a yellow residue. The solvent was removed and residue was subjected to flash column chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc/hexanes=3/7 v/v) to give a white solid product, N,N-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-oxopropanamide, 2.15 g, 82.4% yield. MS: m/z 322 [M+Na]+.
