Piperidine → 2,3,4-Tris(octadecyloxy)benzhydryl amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

N-(9-Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-2,3,4-tris(octadecyloxy)benzhydryl amine (3.37 g, 2.89 mmol) was dissolved in a mixed solvent of chloroform (30 mL) and acetonitrile (15 mL), 20% piperidine [1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone solution] (28.6 mL, 57.9 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, methanol was added, and the precipitated solid was collected by filtration. The obtained solid was dried under reduced pressure to give the title compound (2.80 g, 97.9%) as a white solid.
