Benzyl 2-(di-tert-butoxyphosphoryloxy)ethylcarbamate → 2-Aminoethyl di(tert-butyl) phosphate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 225 (1.17 g, 3.02 mmol) in MeOH (30 mL) with Pd/C (5%, 0.21 g) was hydrogenated at 50 psi for 2.5 h. The mixture was filtered through Celite, washing with MeOH, and the filtrate was evaporated. The residue was dissolved in CH2Cl and the solution was filtered once more, then evaporated to give 2-aminoethyl di(tert-butyl) phosphate (226) (604 mg, 79%) as a colourless oil: 1H NMR [CDCl3] δ 4.01-3.94 (m, 2H), 2.96-2.90 (m, 2H), 1.58 (br s, 2H), 1.49 (s, 18H). HRMS (FAB) calcd. for C10H25NO4P (MH+) m/z 254.1521, found 254.1519.
