Trifluoroacetic acid → 3-(4-Chloro-phenyl)-1-ethyl-1-pyrrolidin-3-yl-urea

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 3-[3-(4-chloro-phenyl)-1-ethylureido]-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (0.4 g, 1.08 mmol) in dichloromethane (5.0 ml) cooled at 0° C. was treated with trifluoroacetic acid (20%) and warmed to room temperature and stirred for 2 h. The reaction was concentrated in vacuo, diluted with ethyl acetate and free based with 10% aqueous sodium bicarbonate. The combined organics were dried over sodium sulfate. The product was used without any further purification. ESI-MS m/z: 268 (M+1), UV retention time: 1.02 min.
