Hydrochloric Acid → HCID 19841753, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

HCl gas was bubbled through a suspension of 4.0 g (18.3 millimoles) (tert-butoxycarbonyl)aminocubane in 200 ml of wet methanol at -30° C. until the solution became homogeneous. The methanol was removed in vacuo and 50 ml ether/acetone (4:1) was added to the residue. The solid (2.4 g, 85%) was collected by filtration and dried. The light tan solid was used without further purification. An NMR spectrum of the product dissolved in fully deuterated dimethyl sulfoxide had peaks assigned the following sigma values, compared to tetramethylsilane: 8.9 ppm (broad singlet, 3 hydrogens) and 4.3-3.8 (multiplet, 7 hydrogens).
