Triethylamine → HCID 59351787, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution (40 mL) of methyl 2-amino-5-ethylthiophene-3-carboxylate (0.5 g) in methylene chloride were added triphosgene (0.32 g) and triethylamine (0.59 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. To the reaction mixture was added N-phenylethane-1,2-diamine (1 g), and the mixture was further stirred at room temperature for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was washed with water and saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was dissolved in methanol (20 mL), sodium methoxide (28% methanol solution, 1.3 g) was added, and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the obtained residue was extracted with 1N hydrochloric acid and ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained solid was recrystallized from tetrahydrofuran-hexane to give the title compound as colorless crystals (0.22 g, 25%).
