Potassium Carbonate → HCID 67025581, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-bromo-3-(bromomethyl)benzonitrile (0.95 g, 3.46 mmol) in DMF (13.40 ml) was added thiomorpholine (0.417 ml, 4.15 mmol) and potassium carbonate (0.573 g, 4.15 mmol). The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at RT overnight. The reaction mixture was poured onto water and extracted with EtOAc (×2). The organic extractions were combined, washed with brine (×3), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated to give a yellow oil. This was purified by flash silica chromatography (Biotage column) (eluent=25% ether/isohexane) to give the sub-title compound as a colourless oil. Yield: 0.951 g
