Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

200 g of molecular sieve are initially introduced into 1000 ml of ethanol, and 105 g (1 mol) of aminoacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal and 70 g (1 mol) of crotonaldehyde are added. The mixture is allowed to stand overnight at room temperature, the liquid phase is decanted off from the molecular sieve and cooled to 0° C., and 40 g of sodium borohydride are added in 1 g portions. The mixture is subsequently stirred overnight at room temperature and concentrated, the concentrate is taken up in 500 ml of water, and the potassium carbonate is added until an organic phase separates off. The mixture is extracted using chloroform, and the extract is dried over potassium carbonate, concentrated and distilled.
