Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of the amine C (1 mol) in CH2Cl2 (approx. 10 ml per 1 g of the starting compound) triethylamine (1.1 mol) and acetic anhydride (1.2 mol) were added. The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 1 h and concentrated on rotary evaporator. The residue is triturated with hexane, filtered, washed with hexane to give a crystalline compound in good yields.
