Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of acid 3 (137 mg, 0.5 mmol), 3-dimethylaminophenol (82 mg, 0.6 mmol), DCC (103 mg, 0.5 mmol), and DMAP (12 mg, 0.01 mmol) in THF (2 mL) was stirred for 2 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo, the residue dissolved in benzene, washed with H2O and dried (Na2SO4). Column chromatography (10% EtOAc) in benzene gave 13 as a yellow solid (70 mg, 36%), 1H NMR (CDCl3) 8.13, (d, J=7.3 Hz, 1H), 7.90 (d, J=7.4 Hz, 1H), 7.69 (t, J=6.1 Hz, 1H), 7.58 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 7.22 (dd, J=8.1, 8.1 Hz, 1H), 6.30-6.70 (m, 2H), 5.96 (s, 1H), 4.21 (t, J=5.6 Hz, 2H), 2.69 (t, J=6.5 Hz, 2H), 1.90-2.15 (m, 4H).
