Trityl chloride → HCID 22253565, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 7.18 g (71 mmol) of 4-hydroxypiperidine in 100 ml dimethylformamide are added first 19.6 g (142 mmol) of powdered potassium carbonate and then 19.8 9 (71 mmol) of tritylchloride. The mixture is stirred for 22 hours at ambient temperature, diluted with ethyl acetate to twice the volume, washed with water and saturated saline solution, dried with magnesium sulphate and concentrated by evaporation. The residue is recrystallised from ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:4, v:v). 17.65 g (72.4% of theory) of 4-hydroxy-N-tritylpiperidine are obtained as colourless crystals, melting point 157-158° C.
