Morpholine → HCID 66579727, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1-(1-Chloro-1-methylethyl)-4-iodobenzene (2 g, 7 mmol) in morpholine (10 mL) is added KI (0.5 g). The mixture is irradiated under microwave irradiation for 20 min at 160° C. (×10). The combined reaction mixtures are dissolved in EtOAc, washed with water, brine and dried over sodium sulphate. The solvent is concentrated under vacuum and purified by column chromatography (50% EtOAc in pet ether) to afford title compound as a light brown liquid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz): δ 7.65-7.63 (dd, J=2, 6.8 Hz, 2H), 7.30-7.28 (dd, J=2, 6.8 Hz, 2H), 3.53-3.65 (t, 4H), 2.33-2.31 (t, 4H), 1.22 (s, 6H).
