Potassium Carbonate → Methyl 2-[(2,6-dichlorobenzyl)amino]-3-(4-nitrophenyl)propanoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of methyl 2-amino-3-(4-nitrophenyl)propanoate 2 (6 g) in CH3CN (30 ml) is added, pulverized K2CO3 (11.095 g), 2,6-dichlorobenzyl bromide (6.42 g). The mixture is stirred at RT for 6 h then filtrated on decalite and evaporated. The residue is placed in CH2Cl2 (100 ml) and washed three time with water (100 ml) dried over MgSO4 and evaporated. The residue is purified by silica gel chromatography using AcOEt/hexane 10/90 as eluent.
