Tetrabutylammonium Fluoride → N-[4-({4-[(dimethylphosphoryl)methyl]piperazin-1-yl}methyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3-ethynyl-4-methylbenzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-[4-({4-[(dimethylphosphoryl)methyl]piperazin-1-yl}methyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4-methyl-3-[(trimethylsilyl)ethynyl]benzamide (4.1 mmol) in THF (15 mL) is added 5 mL of TBAF in THF (1.0M). After stirring at rt for 1 h, the mixture is partitioned between H2O and EtOAc. The combined organic layers are dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and then concentrated on a rotavap and the residue is purified on a silica gel column (eluent: 10% MeOH in CH2Cl2, MeOH is pre-saturated with ammonia gas).
