N,O-Dimethylhydroxylamine → 3,N-Dimethoxy-N-methyl-5-trifluoromethylbenzamide

Temperature

-15 °C

Methyl 3-methoxy-5-trifluoromethylbenzoate (O4.014, 1 g) and N,O-dimethylhydroxylamine (416 mg) were initially charged in THF (30 ml). Thereafter, the mixture was cooled to −15° C., and isopropylmagnesium chloride (3.2 ml; 2 M in THF) was added dropwise within 10 min. The mixture was stirred at −15° C. for another 20 min before the cooling bath was removed. After 3 h, the mixture was cooled again to −15° C. and further isopropylmagnesium chloride (3.2 ml) was added. After the cooling bath had been removed, the mixture was stirred at RT for another hour, then admixed with 20% ammonium chloride solution and extracted three times with EA. The combined EA phases were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified using silica gel (50 g cartridge, DCM as eluent). 465 mg of the title compound were obtained, as well as 427 mg of reactant.
