Chloroacetyl chloride → HCID 66973294, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of (1R,2S)-1-amino-2-indanol (500 mg, 3.35 mmol) and triethylamine (0.51 mL, 3.69 mmol) in anhydrous CH2Cl2 at 0° C. was added chloroacetyl chloride (0.295 mL, 3.69 mmol) dropwise. The resulting mixture was stirred for 30 min, quenched with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (15 mL) and then extracted with EtOAc (2×75 mL). The combined organic extracts were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography, eluting with a gradient of hexane:EtOAc 70:30 to 0:100, to give the title compound. MS: m/z=226 (M+1).
