Triethylamine → HCID 54361343, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of N-benzyloxycarbonyl-(L)-tryptophanol (1.0 g) in ethanol hydrogenation (20 ml)-dioxane (40 ml), palladium-carbon (5%, 0.5 g) was subjected to catalytic hydrogenation at room temperature under 1 atmospheric pressure. After the palladium-carbon was filtered off, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to yield an oily substance. This oily substance was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (10 ml), and 1-naphthalenesulfonyl chloride (0.77 g) was added and then triethylamine (0.39 g) was added at 0° C. After overnight stirring at room temperature, the reaction mixture was poured over water and extracted with ether. The ether layer was washed by sequential additions of a 10% aqueous citric acid solution, a saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and saturated saline and then dried (MgSO4). After the solvent was distilled off, the oily residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography and eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:1) to yield a powder of N-(1-naphthylsulfonyl)-(L)-tryptophanol (0.8 g, 68%).
