Reaktionsschritte

A solution of dibenzylamine (40 g, 0.2 mol) and 2-butene-1,4-diol diacetate (105 g, 0.61 mol) dissolved in 150 ml of tetrahydrofuran (THF) is treated with tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (1.0 g, 0.9 mmol) and stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture is concentrated in vacuo and the excess 2-butene-1,4-diol diacetate is removed by bulb-to-bulb distillation at 80°-90° C./1 mm. The residue is purified by eluting through a short plug of silica gel (1:1 ethyl acetate:hexanes). 1-Acetoxy-4-dibenzylamino-2-butene is obtained in a yield of 59.2 g (95%).
