Bis(2-Methoxyethyl)amine → HCID 19434107, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of the product of Step D (1.19 g, 3.68 mmol) and triethylamine (1.24 g, 12.3 mmol) in anhydrous THF (50 mL) was added methanesulfonic anhydride (1.07 g, 6.13 mmol). After 30 min, bis(2-methoxyethyl)amine (3 mL) was added and stirring continued for 18 h at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was heated at reflux temperature for 1 h, cooled, poured into a saturated solution of sodium bicarbonate (100 mL) and this mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL). The combined extracts were dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to a residue which was purified by column chromatography (silica, 40% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give a viscous oil (1.16 g, 72%).
