참여 물질

반응 단계

47 g of (±)-2-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-5-en-3-one were dissolved in acetonitrile (325 ml) and pyridine (41 ml) under nitrogen. At 12° C., 43.9 g of propionyl chloride were added dropwise over the course of 1 h. The reaction was then stirred at room temperature for 5 h. 145 ml of water were added to the mixture, and the acetonitrile was evaporated off in vacuo. The aqueous phase was extracted 3 times with 115 ml of ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were washed with 1N HCl (140 ml), saturated NaHCO3 (40 ml) and NaCl (40 ml) solutions, dried with sodium sulphate and completely evaporated. The residue was purified by distillation. 55.8 g of title compound were obtained and solidified on leaving to stand. The yield was 81.6%.
