Triethylamine → HCID 71743188, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of tert-butyl (RS)-2-(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)-2-hydroxyethyl(2-hydroxyethyl)carbamate (4.68 g) and triethylamine (3.5 ml) in THF (50 ml) at 0-5° C. was added dropwise methanesulfonyl chloride (1.84 ml). The reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for 2.5 hours to afford a yellow suspension. The reaction mixture was then filtered to remove triethylamine hydrochloride, washing the filter with THF (10 ml). The filtrate was cooled to 0-5° C. and potassium 2-methyl-2-butoxide (15.6 ml, 1.7 M solution in toluene) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 min and then poured into EtOAc and washed sequentially with water and with saturated brine. The organic phase was dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (silica gel; gradient: 0% to 70% EtOAc in hexanes) to afford tert-butyl (RS)-2-(6-chloropyridin-3-yl)morpholine-4-carboxylate (1.16 g, 26%) as a yellow solid. MS (ISP): 301.2 ([{37Cl}M+H]+), 299.1 ([{35Cl}M+H]+), 245.2 ([{37Cl}M+H—C4H8]+), 243.2 ([{35Cl}M+H—C4H8]+).
