Methanesulfonyl chloride → 1-Propanol, 3-(trimethylsilyl)-

Participants

Reaction Steps

Methanesulfonylchloride (0.73 ml, 9 mmol) was added dropwise to a solution of 3-(trimethylsilyl)-1-propanol (1.2 ml, 7.56 mmol) cooled at 0° C. in 20 ml of dichloromethane. After 45 minutes stirring, the reaction mixture was partitioned between water and dichloromethane, the organic phase was separated, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to afford the expected 3-(trimethylsilyl)-1-propanol, methanesulfonate in crude quantitative yield.
