Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a cooled (0° C.) solution of 3-quinoxalin-6-ylpropanal (0.195 g, 0.00105 mol) in chloroform (3 mL) was added D-proline (24 mg, 0.00021 mol) followed by N-chlorosuccinimide (147 mg, 0.00110 mol). The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2 h, and then at RT overnight. The mixture was diluted with methylene chloride. The solution was washed with water, brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to yield the desired product (220 mg, 95%). LCMS: (M+H)=221.3.
