Triethylamine → Ethyl 3-(4-(3,3-dimethylcyclobutanecarbonyl)benzamido)propanoate

Participants

Reaction Steps

Tetrahydrofuran (138 mL) was added to a vial containing 4-(3,3-dimethylcyclobutanecarbonyl)benzoic acid (3.20 g, 14.0 mmol), ethyl 3-aminopropanoate hydrochloride (3.17 g, 20.7 mmol) and 1,2,3-benzotriazol-1-ol monohydrate (2.22 g, 14.5 mmol). Triethylamine (9.11 mL, 4.75 mmol) was then added. The reaction was stirred for 16 h, and was then concentrated. Purification by column chromatography (0-35% ethyl acetate in heptane) afforded impure ethyl 3-(4-(3,3-dimethylcyclobutanecarbonyl)benzamido)propanoate (4.22 g, approximately 8.90 mmol pure) as an oil. MS (M+1) 332.2.
