Reaction Steps

A solution of 4-bromophenylacetic acid (502 mg, 2.33 mmol), m-toluidine (0.25 mL, 2.33 mmol), HOBT (350 mg, 2.59 mmol), and N-methylmorpholine (0.51 mL, 4.64 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) was treated with EDCI (496 mg, 2.59 mmol), stirred overnight at room temperature, and poured into ice water. The resulting white precipitate was collected by filtration to give 672 mg of the desired product. MS (ESI(+)) m/e 304, 306 (M+H)+.
