Triethylamine → N-[(4-chlorophenyl)methyl]-N',N'-diethylethane-1,2-diamine

Participants

Reaction Steps

4-Chlorobenzylamine (1.0 mL, 8.2 mmol) was added to a solution of 2-bromo-N,N-diethylethylamine hydrobromide (2.4 g, 9.0 mmol) and triethylamine (3.4 mL, 25 mmol) in dichloromethane (16 mL). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 hours. The mixture was then concentrated to give N1-(4-chlorobenzyl)-N2,N2-diethylethane-1,2-diamine as an oil which was used immediately without purification.
