Reaction Steps

425 mg of 2-(2-trimethylsilylethyl)phenylamine (2.2 mmol) and 438 mg (2.0 mmol) of 2-bromo-benzoyl chloride were dissolved in 20 ml of acetonitrile, and 332 mg (2.4 mmol) of potassium carbonate were added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h, 20 ml of water were then added, the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and the extract was dried over sodium sulphate. Removal of the solvent and column-chromatographic purification on silica gel 60 (mobile phase: methylene chloride) gave 405 mg (54% of theory) of 2-bromo-N-[2-(2-trimethylsilyl-ethyl)phenyl]benzamide [log P (pH 2.3)=4.32].
