p-Toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate → HCID 10679822, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.56 g of p-toluenesulfonic acid monohydrate was added to a solution of 8.62 g of N-[2-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)ethoxy]phthalimide [prepared as described in step (a) above] in 86 ml of methanol, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. At the end of this time, the reaction mixture was concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure, and then the resulting residue was dissolved in a mixture of ethyl acetate and water and neutralyzed with sodium hydrogen carbonate. The ethyl acetate layer was separated and-dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure, giving the title compound as a crystalline powder. This was washed with diisopropyl ether to give 4.10 g of the pure compound, melting at 82-85° C.
