Triethylamine → (S)-3-(tert-Butyldimethylsilanyloxy)-1-phenylpropylamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.50 g of (S)-3-amino-3-phenylpropan-1-ol hydrochloride were initially charged in 20 ml of dichloromethane and then 2.77 ml of triethylamine and 1.30 g of tert-butyldimethylchlorosilane were added. After stirring at room temperature for 3 hours, the reaction solution was extracted three times with 30 ml of water, dried by means of a phase separator cartridge (Isolute®), concentrated by rotary evaporation and dried under high vacuum. This gave the product (2.06 g) with a molecular weight of 265.5 g/mol (C15H27NOSi); MS (ESI): m/e=266 (M+H+).
