Ethanol → Ethyl 4-(2-aminophenyl)-4-oxobutanoate

참여 물질

반응 단계

3-(2-Aminobenzoyl)propionic acid (26.7 g) and concentrated sulphuric acid (25 cc) in absolute ethanol (250 cc) are stirred for 17 hours at room temperature (approximately 20° C.). The ethanol is evaporated off under reduced pressure, water (200 cc) and ethyl acetate (200 cc) are added and potassium carbonate is added until the pH is 8. The mixture is filtered, and the aqueous phase decanted and re-extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 cc). The organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate, filtered and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. Ethyl 3-(2-aminobenzoyl)propionate (24.8 g) is obtained in the form of an oil. The proton NMR spectrum in deuterated chloroform shows the following characteristics:
