Water → 1,4-Dioxa-8-aza-spiro[4.5]decane-8-carbonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

Bromonitrile (11.12 g) is added to a mixture of 1,4-dioxa-8-aza-spiro[4.5]decane (10.00 g) and ethyldiisopropylamine (59.92 mL) in dichloromethane (125 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (125 mL). The reaction mixture is stirred over night at room temperature. Water is added and the organic phase is separated, dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo to give the title compound. TLC: rf=0.80 (aluminum oxide, ethyl acetate/petrol ether 3:1); Mass spectrum (ESI+): m/z=169 [M+H]+.
