Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred mixture of trans-stilbene oxide (6.48 g, 0.033 mol), and glycine ethyl ester (6.15 g, 0.0598 mol) was heated at 120° for 22 hours. The mixture was triturated with ether and filtered to remove some insoluble materials. The filtrate was concentrated to yield 6.83 g (69.1%) of oil which solidified into a waxy solid upon cooling. The compound was purified and characterized as the hydrochloride salt, mp 185°-187° C. (absolute ethanolisopropyl ether) [reported mp 167°, Can. J. Chem. 45, 2865 (1967)].
