1-(Azetidin-1-yl)-2-[4-(benzyloxy)-2-chlorophenyl]ethanone → 1-(Azetidin-1-yl)-2-(2-chloro-4-hydroxyphenyl)ethanone

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(azetidin-1-yl)-2-[4-(benzyloxy)-2-chlorophenyl]ethanone (520 mg, 1.65 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (2 ml) and palladium hydroxide on carbon (20%) (116 mg, 0.165 mmol) added. The mixture was stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen gas at RT overnight. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure. The reside was purified by column chromatography using a Biotage RP C18 cartridge (30 g) using a gradient eluant of 10-100% water:acetonitrile+0.05% formic acid. to afford the title compound. LC/MS (m/z): 226 (M+H)+.
