Benzyl Bromide → HCID 11304050, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (140 mg, 60% oil dispersion, 3.7 mmol) was added portionwise to a stirred solution of benzyl bromide (300 μL, 2.8 mmol) and 1 (200 mg, 0.92 mmol) in DMF (10 mL) at 0° C. On complete addition the resulting suspension was allowed to warm to r.t., diluted with toluene (100 mL), washed with water (50 mL), brine (50 mL), dried (MgSO4), and concentrated in vacuo to afford a syrup. Chromatography afforded 2 (350 mg, 96%) as an oil which was used in the next step without purification.
