Di-tert-butyl dicarbonate → [(3-Bromo-4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-bromo-4-fluorobenzylamine (10 g, 41 mmol) and TEA (14 mL, 104 mmol) in CH2Cl2 was added BOC2O (9.1 g, 41 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred for 16 h at RT, then diluted with aq. 1 N NaOH and CH2Cl2. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over Na2SO4, and concentrated to give (tert-butoxy)-N-[(3-bromo-4-fluorophenyl)methyl]carboxamide.
