Acetyl chloride → HCID 67606271, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a suspension of (R)-quinuclidin-3-yl 2-amino-2-phenylacetate dihydrochloride (I25) (140 mg, 0.42 mmol) in DCM (10 ml), were sequentially added triethylamine (175 μl, 1.26 mmol) and acetyl chloride (35.8 μl, 0.50 mmol). The reaction was stirred at RT for 2 hours, and then the solvent was evaporated. The residue was taken up with little EtOAc, and the insoluble was filtered off. The organic phase was evaporated to dryness achieving (R)-quinuclidin-3-yl 2-acetamido-2-phenylacetate (127 mg; quantitative yield).
