Reaction Steps

A suspension of triphosgene (0.78 g, 2.6 mmol) in 15 ml of CH2Cl2 was treated in small portions with 2,2-diphenylethylamine (1.54 g, 7.8 mmol) at 0° C., under N2. The reaction mixture was stirred for 30 minutes and filtered. The filtrate was then concentrated in vacuo to provide a yellow oil.
