Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of styrene oxide (2.40 g 0.030 mole) and 2-methoxyethylamine (4.50 g, 0.060mole) was heated on a steam bath for 16 hours. After cooling to ambient temperature the oil began to crystallize. Trituration in isooctane followed by filtration gave a slightly impure solid. Recrystallization from isopropyl ether gave 1.52 g (39%) of the product, mp 77°-80° C.
