Benzyl [2-(dimethylcarbamoyl)ethyl]methylcarbamate → N,N,N~3~-Trimethyl-beta-alaninamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Benzyl [2-(dimethylcarbamoyl)ethyl]methylcarbamate (I-140) (0.62 g, 2.35 mmol) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (15 ml), and 10% palladium-carbon (containing about 50% water, 0.15 g) was added, followed by stirring for 16 hours under hydrogen gas atmosphere. The catalyst was removed by filtration, and the solvent was evaporated away under reduced pressure to obtain a yellow oil (0.31, quant.).
