Sodium Bicarbonate → HCID 21090534, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

4,4-Ethylenedioxy-4-phenylbutylamine (27.0 mg, 0.13 mmol) was dissolved in chloroform (3 ml) at room temperature, and thereto were added tert-butyl 2-(3-formylphenoxy)butyrate (34.4 g, 0.13 mmol) in a chloroform solution (2 ml) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (41.4 mg, 0.20 mmol) in sequential order at the same temperature, and thereafter, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction solution was added to a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and thereafter extracted by chloroform. The extracted organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resultant substance was purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform/methanol=10/1), whereby the target compound was obtained as a colorless oil (38.5 mg, 64.9%).
