Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (3-amino-2,5,6-trifluorophenyl)methanol (200 mg, 1.1 mmol) in DMF (3 mL) was added DIEA (1.6 mL) and 2-bromoethylether (5 eq) and the reaction heated to 80° C. for 18 h. The reaction was allowed to cool to rt, diluted with EtOAc and washed with H2O then saturated NH4Cl (aq). The organic phase was dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The resultant residue was purified by column chromatography (petroleum ether: EtOAc) to give (2,3,6-trifluoro-5-morpholinophenyl)methanol (110 mg, 48%).
