Benzenamine, 4-(phenylmethyl)- → N-(4-benzylphenyl)-2-fluoro-4-formylbenzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-benzylbenzenamine (0.100 g, 0.55 mmol), 2-fluoro-4-formylbenzoic acid (0.092 g, 0.55 mmol), N,N-diethylpropan-2-amine (0.10 ml, 0.65 mmol) in DMF (2.00ml) was added HBTU. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc, washed with water and dried over MgSO4. The solvent was evaporated and the residue was purified by flash chromatography in a EtOAc/Hexene system to give the title compound.
