Participants

Reaction Steps

Acetic anhydride (0.08 ml) was added dropwise to a solution of 3-nitrobenzylamine hydrochloride (139 mg) and triethylamine (0.22 ml) in methylene chloride (10 ml) and stirred at room temperature for 2 h. To the reaction mixture, 2 N HCl was added and extraction was performed with methylene chloride; then, the organic layer was washed successively with water and a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent: ethyl acetate) to give 102 mg of the titled compound (yield, 71%).
