Acetic Acid → Methyl 4-dipropylaminomethylbenzoate

참여 물질

반응 단계

In anhydrous methanol (30 ml), 4-aminomethylbenzoic acid methyl ester hydrochloride (1.15 g) was dissolved. Then, the solution was added with sodium cyanoborohydride (1.08 g), acetic acid (5.00 ml), and propionaldehyde (1.03 ml), followed by stirring under a nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature for 1 week. After completion of the reaction, the solvent was distilled off and the residue was then dissolved in chloroform, followed by the addition of a 1 mol/l sodium hydroxide aqueous solution to adjust the solution to pH 9. The solution was subjected to extraction with chloroform. Then, the extract was washed with a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and saturated saline solution. The organic layer was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and the solvent was then distilled off, thereby obtaining the subject compound (1.49 g) as a colorless liquid.
