Dimethylamine, hydrochloride → HCID 57905910, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-bromo-5-Iodo-benzoic acid (4.0 g, 12.2 mmol) in 100 mL of thionyl chloride was heated under reflux for 2 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting solid was then dissolved in 80 mL of CH2Cl2. Dimethylamine hydrochloride (1.5 g, 18.3 mmol) and DIPEA (4.3 mL, 24.5 mmol) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 h. The resulting solution was concentrated under reduced pressure and the crude material was purified by column chromatography (Isco™ 330 g) using 50% hexanes/EtOAc as eluting solvent to afford 3.8 g (88%) of 3-bromo-5-iodo-N,N-dimethyl-benzamide as a white solid.
