Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

In a sealed system, (((Z)-((3-(dimethylamino)propanoyl)azanediyl)bis(ethane-2,1-diyl) dioleate (588 mg, 0.802 mmol) was dissolved in ACN (10 mL) and 2-bromoethanol (200 uL) was added. The reaction vessel was flushed with inert gas and then sealed. Reaction was heated to 80° C. and stirred overnight, then cooled and concentrated in vacuo. Purification by silica gel chromatography with a DCM/MeOH gradient yielded 3-(bis(2-(oleoyloxy)ethyl)amino)-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-3-oxopropan-1-aminium bromide (160 mg). QTOF MS ESI+: m/z 764.3 (M+H).
