Triethylamine → HCID 71612644, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-amino-3-phenoxypropan-2-ol hydrochloride (7.9 g, 38.8 mmol) and 1-(2-chloroacetyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile (6.1 g, 35.3 mmol) in DCM (250 mL) was added triethylamine (15 mL, 106 mmol). The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. After the TLC showed that the reaction was complete, the mixture was washed by brine. The aqueous solution was extracted with dichloromethane (DCM) (3×100 mL) and the combined DCM solution was concentrated to give a crude product, which was purified by column chromatography to give 3.5 g of 1-(2-(2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropylamino)acetyl)pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile (as shown at 6). Yield was 33.6%.
