Trityl chloride → Trifenmorph

Participants

Reaction Steps

Morpholine (0.47 g, 5.39 mmol) (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), triphenylchloromethane (1.50 g, 5.39 mmol) (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), and potassium carbonate (0.75 g, 5.39 mmol) (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were added to N,N-dimethylformamide (5 mL) (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. A saturated aqueous solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) was added to the reaction solution, and mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.). The organic layer was dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.):ethyl acetate (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.)=9:1 as an eluent), to thereby obtain the title compound (0.42 g, 71% yield).
