Reaction Steps

1.84 ml (12.09 mmol) 1-n-butyl-3-methyl-2-methylene imidazoline is added to a solution of 1.38 g (12.09 mmol) trifluoroacetic acid in diethylether cooled to −78° C. by means of a syringe. The reaction mixture is slowly warmed to room temperature, wherein a white solid is formed and is stirred overnight at room temperature. Subsequently, all volatile components are removed in vacuum; the residue is washed with 20 ml hexane and, subsequently dried in vacuum. The desired product is obtained as a white solid, which can be recrystallized from dichloromethane.
