Reaction Steps

To a solution of NBS (218 mg, 1 mmol) in DMF was added a solution of 2-tert-butylaniline (149 mg, 1 mmol) in DMF at rt. The reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h at rt, then water (30 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with EA (150 mL). The organic layer was washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4, concentrated and purified by CC (hexane/EA=3/1) to give compound P19a (180 mg, 79%).
