Dibutyltin dichloride → HCID 57795442, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A suspension of 3-amino-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (5.0 g, 31.85 mmol) in dry THF (9 mL) was treated with 1,4-cyclohexanedione monoethylene ketal (5.0 g, 32.05 mmol), followed by dibutyltin dichloride (482 mg, 1.59 mmol). After 5 min, phenyl silane (4.3 mL, 34.96 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. After concentration, the residue was dissolved in EtOAc and washed with NaHCO3 followed by brine. The organic layer was separated, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography using 30% ethyl acetate in hexane as eluent to give 3-(1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]dec-8-ylamino)-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (4.5 g, 47% yield).
