Preparation of starting material for the Ugi reaction
Hazard and Risk Assessment:
Reaction Class: 2
Hazards: T Toxic, X Irritant, C Corrosive
Risk rating: U = Unlikely
Start time: 11:05 AM 09/06/2010
End time: 10:45 AM 10/06/2010
To a mixture of phenethylamine (1.00 g, 8.25 mmol), benzyltriethylammonium chloride (TEBACl) (94 mg, 413 µmol, 5 mol%) and NaOH (1.32 g, 33.0 mmol, 4 eq.) in DCM (20 mL) was added chloroform (1.48 g, 1.0 mL, 12.4 mmol, 1.5 eq.) and heated to reflux.
- after 12 h the solution was cooled to room temperature and stirred vigorously for another 12 h.
Work-up: quenched with water, extracted with DCM, washed with 1 N aq. HCl-solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, concentrated.
- dark brown oil, purification by column chromatography (silica gel, hexane/EA, 4:1, stain: KMnO4), Rf = 0.50 (fast elution), TLC (hexane:EA, 4:1, stain: KMnO4).
Result:
Product MW34-1: 633 mg (4.82 mmol, 58%) brown liquid, pungent smell; reference yield : 60% [1]
This patented procedure offers a convenient access for the synthesis of 2-Phenylethyl isocyanide in 1 step. Compound also commercially available
