Participants

Reaction Steps

A 4 M solution of HCl in dioxane (5 mL) was added to a solution of tert-butyl 3-(2-chloro-4-(methoxycarbonyl)benzylidene)azetidine-1-carboxylate (0.27 g, 0.66 mmol) in dioxane:DCM (1:1 v/v, 10 mL) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 h. Salt precipitation was observed. The reaction mixture was diluted with diethyl ether (20 mL). The precipitate was filtered, washed with ether and dried overnight to get the HCl salt of methyl 4-(azetidin-3-ylidenemethyl)-3-chlorobenzoate (0.12 g) as an off-white solid. ES+(M+H)+238
