Acetic Anhydride → HCID 12914604, compound

A solution of 5-amino-1-pentanol (0.650 g, 6.31 mmol) in methanol (15 mL) is cooled to 0° C. and treated with triethylamine (1.62 mL, 11.6 mmol) followed by acetic anhydride (0.891 mL, 9.45 mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature overnight. Additional triethylamine (1.6 mL, 11.6 mmol) and acetic anhydride (0.9 mL, 9.5 mmol) is added at room temperature and the solution is stirred 16 h further. Concentration in vacuo and flash chromatography affords 5-acetamido-1-pentanol. To a solution of 5-acetamido-1-pentanol (22.2 mmol) in dry dichloromethane (50 mL) is added 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylpyridine (4.6 g, 22.2 mmol) and triflic anhydride (3.7 mL, 22.2 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction is stirred at room temperature for 20 min, poured into water, and extracted with dichloromethane. The combined extracts are dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo and to afford 5-acetamido-1-pentyl triflate (30) which is used without further purification.
