Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-bromo-2-ethyl-benzoyl chloride (1.00 g, 4.04 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (20 mL) was added methylamine (0.70 mL, 40% solution in water, 8.08 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 3 hours, at which time the volatiles were removed in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in EtOAc, washed with H2O, dried over MgSO4, and concentrated to a brown oil (0.857 g, 88%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 1.21 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 3 H), 2.75 (q, J=7.5 Hz, 2 H), 2.97 (d, J=4.9 Hz, 3 H), 5.74 (s, 1 H), 7.17 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 1 H), 7.32 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 1 H), 7.39 (s, 1 H).
