Participants

Reaction Steps

Add 5-(1,1-difluoroethyl)-N-(diphenylmethylene)pyridin-3-amine (296 mg, 0.92 mmol), water (1 mL) and hydrochloric acid (1N, 4 mL) to THF (10 mL), stir at room temperature for 3 hrs. TLC (PE:EtOAc=2:1) shows the reaction is complete. Extract the mixture with ethyl acetate, wash the organic layer with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and brine sequentially, and dry over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Concentrate under reduced pressure to give the crude product. Purification by flash chromatography (silica gel, EtOAc:PE=1:1) yields the title compound (140 mg, 96.5%). MS: (M+1): 159.2.
