Hydrazine hydrate (1:1) → Oxane-4-carbohydrazide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a round-bottom flask was added a solution of methyl tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxylate (compound 137.1, 5.00 g, 31.2 mmol, 1.00 equiv, 90%) in methanol (50 mL). Hydrazine hydrate (5.20 g, 83.2 mmol, 3.00 equiv) was added and the resulting mixture was stiffed overnight at 40° C. in an oil bath. After cooling to ambient temperature, the mixture was concentrated in vacuo to yield 4.00 g (80%) of tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-carbohydrazide as a white solid.
