Ethanamine, 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)-N,N-bis[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]- → HCID 14990577, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred mixture of 7.4 parts of potassium permanganate, 0.6 parts of 2-(2-methoxyethoxy)-N,N-bis[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]ethanamine and 130 parts of dichloromethane was added dropwise a solution of 7.6 parts of 1-methyl-1H-benzotriazole-7-methanol in dichloromethane. Upon complete addition, stirring was continued for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered over diatomaceous earth and washed with dichloromethane. The organic layer was washed with 30 parts of a hydrochloric acid solution 2N and then with a sodium carbonate solution, dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of dichloromethane and methanol (98:2 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated, yielding 3.5 parts (46.6%) of 1-methyl-1H-benzotriazole-7-carboxaldehyde; mp. 126° C. (int. 18).
