Methacryloyl chloride → N'-methacryloyl-ethylenediamine

Temperature

0 °C

The intermediate N-t-BOC, N-methyl-ethylenediamine monohydrochloride prepared in example 5 (10 mmol, 2.1 g) was stirred with 2M NaOH (11 cm3) at room temperature for 10 min. The solution was then cooled to 0° C., and to this, was added a solution of methacryloyl chloride (11 mmol, 1.1 cm3) in chloroform (30 cm3), dropwise. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for a further 1 h. The organic and aqueous phases were then separated, and the aqueous phase extracted with chloroform. The organic extracts were combined, dried (MgSO4), filtered and conc. in vacuo, to give the crude product. The crude product was stirred at room temperature over a slurry of basic alumina in chloroform for 18 hr. Removal of the alumina and concentration of the filtrate then gave a pale yellow oil. Purification by flash chromatography (silica gel, diethyl ether:hexane:methanol elution) afforded N-t-BOC, N-methyl, N′-methacryloyl-ethylenediamine (Rf 0.51) as a yellow oil (1.63 g, 67%). δH (400 MHz; CDCl3) 6.94 (1H, br s), HNOC(H3C)C═CHaHb; 5.74 (1H, br m), (H3C)C═CHaHb; 5.30 (1H, br m), (H3C)C═CHaHb; 3.43 (4H, br m). 2×CH2; 2.87 (3H, s), N(CH3); 1.93 (3H, br m), CH3; 1.44 (9H, s), C(CH3)3. δC (75.4 MHz; CDCl3) 168.52, NHOC(H3C)C═CH2; 157.33, NHCO2C(CH3)3; 139.36, (H3C)C═CH2; 119.81, (H3C)C═CH2; 80.85 C(CH3)3; 47.32, CH2N(CH3)OC(H3C)C═CH2; 39.32, CH2NHCO2C(CH3)3; 34.68, N(CH3); 28.33, C(CH3)3; 18.47, CH3.
