Diisopropylethylamine → (1R,3S)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclobutanecarboxylic 2,4,6-trichlorobenzoic anhydride

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of (1R,3S)-3-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclobutanecarboxylic acid (about 0.450 g, 1.97 mmol) and DIPEA (about 1.01 ml, 5.92 mmol) in THF (about 4 ml) and 2,4,6-trichloro benzoyl chloride (0.35 ml, 2.17 mmol) were added at 0° C. and the reaction mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature for about 6 hours, after completion of the reaction (monitored by TLC), the solvent was evaporated and crude product proceeded as such for the next reaction.
