1H-Benzotriazole-1-methanol → N-{1-(1H-Benzotriazolyl)methyl}-4-benzyloxy-2-fluoroaniline

Participants

Reaction Steps

After dissolving 4-benzyloxy-2-fluoroaniline (11.25 g, 51.78 mmol) in methanol (300 ml), 1H-benzotriazole-1-methanol (8.11 g, 54.37 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred for 10 hours at room temperature. The precipitated crystals were filtered out, washed with ethanol and dried by aspiration to obtain the title compound (12.01 g, 34.47 mmol, 66.57%) as colorless crystals.
