Triethylamine → HCID 79035731, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-chloro-3-fluorobenzoic acid (30 g, 172 mmol) in 300 mL of DCM was added carbonyldiimidazole (CDI) (32.0 g, 198 mmol) in portions. After addition and then stirring at RT for 1 h, N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine HCl salt (18.5 g, 189 mmol) was added into the mixture followed by Et3N (20 mL). The mixture was stirred at RT overnight. After the reaction was quenched with water, the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (2×). The organic layers were washed with 2N HCl (aq), water, sat. NaHCO3 (aq) and brine. The solution was dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The product 2-chloro-3-fluoro-N-methoxy-N-methylbenzamide (32.0 g) was obtained by silica gel chromatography (elution with 0-30% EtOAc/Hex).
