Participants

Reaction Steps

2-[(1-phenylethyl)amino]propan-1-ol (5-5, 0.027 g, 0.151 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (1.0 mL) was treated with Cu(OAc)2 (0.041 g, 0.227 mmol), pyridine (0.024 mL, 0.302 mmol), and 4-fluoro-3-chloro-phenylboronic acid (0.026 g, 0.149 mmol). 4 A MS (20 mg) were added and the resulting solution stirred 24 h. Upon completion, the reaction mixture was filtered and the filtrate was purified by reverse phase liquid chromatography (Semi-prep YMC C-18 Column 5% CH3CN/H2O up to 95% CH3CN/H2O) to give 2-[(3-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)(1-phenylethyl)amino]propan-1-ol (5-6) as a brown oil. MS 308.3 found 308.8 (M+H+) required.
