Triethylamine → HCID 58723691, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

In an ice bath under N2-atmosphere, 3-nitro-5-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid (Lancaster; 11.8 g, 50 mmol), CH2Cl2 (150 ml), 3 drops of DMF and oxalylchloride ( 7.0 ml, 81 mmol) are mixed and then stirred for 2.5 h at rt. The resulting solution is concentrated in vacuo. The residue is dissolved in CH2Cl2 (170 ml) and added dropwise to an ice cooled solution of dimethylamine hydrochloride (4.5 g, 55 mmol) and NEt3 (21 ml; 0.15 mol) in CH2Cl2 (100 ml). After stirring for 15 h at rt, the mixture is worked up as described in Stage 134.3, giving the title compound as an oil: MS: [M+1]+=263; 1H-NMR (CDCl3): 8.53 (s, 1H), 8.47 (s, 1H), 8.03 (s, 1H), 3.18 (s, 3H), 3.04 (s, 3H).
