Sodium hydride → 3-(3-Bromobenzyl)-6-methyl-6-phenyl-1,3-oxazinan-2-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 6-methyl-6-phenyl-1,3-oxazinan-2-one (500 mg, 2.62 mmol) and NaH (189 mg, 7.86 mmol) in dry THF (10 mL) was stirred for 1 h. A solution of m-bromobenzyl bromide (1.31 g, 5.24 mmol) in dry THF (3 mL) was added. The mixture was stirred overnight at rt. The reaction mixture was quenched water and extracted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, concentrated and purified by preparative TLC to afford 3-(3-bromobenzyl)-6-methyl-6-phenyl-1,3-oxazinan-2-one (300 mg, 32%). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 1.60-1.70 (s, 3H), 2.15-2.30 (m, 1H), 2.35-2.48 (m, 1H), 2.79-2.90 (m, 1H), 3.00-3.10 (m, 1H), 4.30-4.40 (m, 1H), 4.50-4.60 (m, 1H), 6.90-7.00 (m, 1H), 7.00-7.10 (m, 1H), 7.20-7.45 (m, 7H).
