Propargyl bromide → N-prop-2-ynylphthalimide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Propargyl bromide (1.3 mL, 17.4 mmol) is dissolved in DMF (30 mL) and potassium phtalimide (3.4 g; 18.4 mmol) is added. The mixture is refluxed for 5 h. After cooling at room temperature the mixture is diluted with diethyl ether, washed with water (3×50 mL), dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated under vacuum to give N-propargyl phtalimide as white solid (3.15 g; 17 mmol).
