Boron Trichloride → 2,2,2-trifluoro-N-(7-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)-N-propyl-acetamide

참여 물질

반응 단계

To a −78° C. solution of 2,2,2-trifluoro-N-(7-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)-N-propyl-acetamide (3.4 g, 10.9 mmol) and tetrabutylammonium iodide (4.43 g, 12.0 mmol) in dichloromethane (200 mL) under an inert atmosphere boron trichloride (1 M, 27.2 mL) was added dropwise. The reaction was warmed to room temperature and stirred for 2.5 h. The reaction was quenched by the slow addition of water. The organic layer was separated and dried (MgSO4). This was concentrated onto silica (15 g) and placed on top of a flash column. Chromatography eluting with 30% acetone in hexanes afforded 2,2,2-trifluoro-N-(7-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-naphthalen-2-yl)-N-propyl-acetamide as a foam (3.1 g).
