Triethylamine → HCID 59605845, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-aminoazetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (730 mg, 4.24 mmol) and triethylamine (1.74 mL, 1.29 g, 12.72 mmol) in DCM (10 mL) was cooled to 0° C. before the addition of 4-chlorobutyrylchloride (523 μL, 657 mg, 4.66 mmol). The resulting mixture was stirred for 16 h then quenched with H2O and extracted with DCM. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine then dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography (Si—PCC, EtOAc:cyclohexane, 30-70%) affording 3-(4-Chlorobutyrylamino)azetidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as a brown oil (1.04 g, 89%).
