Ethanolamine → (2-Aminoethoxy)(tert-butyl)dimethylsilane

Ethanolamine (2.00 g, 32.7 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (15 mL) followed by addition of imidazole (1.11 g, 16.4 mmol) and tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (2.46 g, 16.4 mmol), and then the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. Water and an aqueous saturated sodium hydrogencarbonate solution were added to the reaction mixture in that order, and then the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated saline solution and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (chloroform/methanol=10/1) to give 2-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethylamine (1.59 g; yield 56%).
