Morpholine → HCID 66636594, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde (5.0 g, 52.5 mmol) and morpholine (5.0 mL, 57.8 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (160 mL) was added sodium triacetoxyborohydride (12.2 g, 57.8 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc (200 mL). The organic phase was washed with aqueous NaHCO3 and brine then dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated to dryness. The residue was purified by column chromatography (silica, 0-10% MeOH in CH2Cl2) to afford the sub-title compound (5.3 g, 61%).
