Diethyl Ether → HCID 14424276, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2-bromo-1-(5-methylthien-2-yl)ethanone (30.0 g of the aforesaid dark liquid) and hexamethylene tetramine (21.0 g, 0.15 mole) in chloroform (500 ml) was stirred at room temperature for three days. The solvent was removed from the reaction mixture by evaporation under reduced pressure, leaving a dark residue. This residue was stirred in warm methylene chloride. Diethyl ether was added slowly to the mixture, causing a solid to precipitate. After being cooled for several hours, the solid was collected by filtration. The filter cake was rinsed with diethyl ether and was dried under reduced pressure yielding 43.1 g of 1-[2-oxo-2-(5-methylthienyl)ethyl]-3,5,7-triaza-1-azoniatricyclo-[3,3,1,13,7 ]decane bromide (mp 141° C. dec).
