Triethylamine → N-[2-benzyloxy-4-(2-dipropylaminoethyl)phenyl]butyramide

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.3 ml of triethylamine is added to 0.65 g of N-[2-(4-amino-3-benzyloxyphenyl)ethyl]-N,N-dipropylamine in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran, and then 0.23 ml of butyryl chloride is added dropwise thereto. The reaction mixture is stirred for one hour at room temperature, diluted with water, and the product extracted by shaking with methylene chloride, isolating 770 mg of N-[2-benzyloxy-4-(2-dipropylaminoethyl)phenyl]butyramide as an oil from the methylene chloride solution.
