Phenacyl bromide → (3R)-3-(2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-2-phenylacetoxy)-1-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bromide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-quinuclidin-3-yl 2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-2-phenylacetate (C29) (100 mg, 0.25 mmol) in EtOAc (5 ml), was added 2-bromo-1-phenylethanone (55.5 mg, 0.28 mmol), and the reaction was stirred at RT for 15 hours. The solvent was evaporated, and the resulting crude was purified by silica gel flash chromatography (DCM/MeOH=93/7) to obtain (3R)-3-(2-(benzyloxycarbonylamino)-2-phenylacetoxy)-1-(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane bromide (127.5 mg; 85% yield).
