Benzene, 1-azido-4-chloro- → (S)-tert-butyl(1-(1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethyl)carbamate

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of (S)-tert-butyl but-3-yn-2-ylcarbamate (250 mg, 1.48 mmol), 1-azido-4-chlorobenzene (227 mg, 1.48 mmol, 1.0 equiv), and N-ethyl-N-isopropylpropan-2-amine (0.77 mL, 4.43 mmol, 3.0 equiv) in anhydrous acetonitrile (14.8 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 10 min. Copper(I) iodide (563 mg, 2.95 mmol, 2.0 equiv) was then added in portions. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. The reaction was quenched with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride (50 mL) and diluted with water (50 mL). The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×30 mL) and the combined organic extracts were washed with water (30 mL), saturated aqueous sodium chloride (30 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. Silica gel column chromatography (EtOAc/Heptane) provided (S)-tert-butyl(1-(1-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethyl)carbamate (0.428 g, white solid) in 90% yield. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.86 (s, 1H), 7.68 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 7.50 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 5.02 (m, 1H), 1.63 (d, J=6.8 Hz, 3H), 1.46 (s, 9H). MS m/z 323.1 (M+H)+; Rt-0.92 min.
