Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2,4-dimethoxybenzylamine (1.50 mL, 10.0 mmol) and triethylamine (2.00 mL, 14.3 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) at 0° C. was added chloroacetyl chloride (0.80 mL, 10 mmol). The reaction was then stirred at 0° C. for three hours. The crude reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water, and the organic layer dried over brine and magnesium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated in vacuo to yield 2.2074 g (91%) of N-(2,4-Dimethoxy-benzyl)-2-chloro-acetamide which was carried forward without purification. LCMS (Method E, ESI): RT=1.43 min, m+H=244.2
