Triethylamine → HCID 178476786, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

13.34 g of benzylphosphinic acid are dissolved in 150 ml of dichloromethane, the solution is cooled to 5°, and 8.64 g of triethylamine are added dropwise. An exothermic reaction takes place. The mixture is cooled to 5° again, and 9.3 g of chloroformic acid ethyl ester are added dropwise within a period of 30 minutes. A precipitate forms in an exothermic reaction with the evolution of gas. The mixture is allowed to warm to room temperature and is then stirred at room temperature for 3 hours, taken up in dichloromethane and washed with water, and the organic solvent is removed. The crude product is distilled under a high vacuum, yielding benzylphosphinic acid ethyl ester having a boiling point of 96°-100 ° (5×10-6 bar).
