Phenacyl bromide → HCID 59179408, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of N-[3-(2,3-dihydrofuro[3,2-c]pyridin-4-yl)propyl]acetamide (24.5 mg, 0.111 mmol) and 2-bromo-1-phenylethanone (44.2 mg, 0.222 mmol) in acetone (3 mL) was heated under reflux for 13 hr. The reaction mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and the resulting crystals were collected by filtration and washed with acetone. The crystals were dissolved in ethanol (3 mL), sodium hydrogen carbonate (50 mg) was added, and the mixture was heated under reflux for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane=50/50→100/50) to give the title compound (12.7 mg, yield 36%).
