Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 2.51 g (9.7 mmol, 1 eq) of 2-[azido-(2-methyltetrahydrofuran-2-yl)methyl]-5-methylfuran in 45 ml of ethanol was stirred at hydrogen atmospheric pressure in the presence of 323 mg (15% by weight) of palladium on carbon (Pd/C) at 10% for 16 hours. The reaction medium was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated. 1.82 g of (5-methylfuran-2-yl)(2-methyltetrahydrofuran-2-yl)methanamine were obtained. Yield=96%. TLC/SiO2: heptane/EtOAc (60/40), developing with KMnO4.
