Morpholine → 2-Bromo-1-(morpholin-4-yl)ethan-1-one

Temperature

-25 °C

A solution of bromoacetyl bromide (3.0 mL, 0.034 mol) in dichloromethane (240 mL) was cooled to −25° C. A solution of morpholine (9.0 mL, 0.10 mol) in dichloromethane (20 mL) was slowly added over a period of one hour. After the addition was complete, the reaction was stirred at −25° C. for 15 minutes and then allowed to warm to ambient temperature. Dichloromethane was added, and the resulting solution was washed sequentially with water, 1N aqueous hydrogen chloride, and brine; dried over magnesium sulfate; filtered; and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide 4-(bromoacetyl)morpholine as a colorless oil.
