Triethylamine → 3-(benzyloxy)-4-bromo-N-(prop-2-ynyl)-5-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)-methoxy)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 3-(benzyloxy)-4-bromo-5-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methoxy)benzoic acid (6.142 g, 13.55 mmol) and Mukaiyama reagent (2-chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide, 5.19 g, 20.3 mmol) in dichloromethane (135 mL) was added triethylamine (7.55 mL, 54.2 mmol). The solution was stirred for 10 minutes after which time propargylamine (1.74 mL, 27.1 mmol) was added. The solution was stirred overnight. The solution was diluted with 1:1 ethyl acetate/diethyl ether and washed with water, brine, dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography (40 g silica gel, gradient of ethyl acetate in dichloromethane) providing 3-(benzyloxy)-4-bromo-N-(prop-2-ynyl)-5-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)-methoxy)-benzamide as an orange oil (6.49 g).
