Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of toremifene base (1.00 g, 0.0025 moles) and methanol (20 ml) was slowly added acetic acid (160 μl, 0.0028 moles). The mixture was stirred for a while and evaporated to dryness. The acetate of toremifene was obtained as sticky white solid. 1H-NMR (d4-MeOH) d 7.37 (tt, 2H), 7.33-7.25 (m, 3H), 7.25-7.10 (m, 5H), 6.82 (dt, 2H), 6.63 (dt, 2H), 4.08 (t, 2H), 3.39 (t, 2H), 3.09 (t, 2H), 2.89 (t, 2H), 2.60 (s, 6H), 1.92 (s, 3H).
