In the next few decades, the world population will flourish. As the population grows rapidly and people all over the world use more and more resources, all industries must consider their environmental impact. 36805-97-7, name is 1,1-Di-tert-butoxy-N,N-dimethylmethanamine belongs to ethers-buliding-blocks compound, it is a common compound, a new synthetic route is introduced below. Safety of 1,1-Di-tert-butoxy-N,N-dimethylmethanamine
A solution of [2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetic acid (3.06 g, 15.0 mmol) in toluene (30 mL) was heated to 80C, 1,1-di-tert-butoxy-N,N-dimethylmethaneamine (14.4 g, 60.0 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at 80C for 2 hr. After cooling to room temperature, the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate. The obtained extract was washed with water, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane=0/100 – 30/70) to give tert-butyl [2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetate (3.16 g, 81%). To a solution of tert-butyl [2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]acetate (3.10 g, 11.9 mmol) in DMF (36 mL) was added sodium hydride (60% oil, 524 mg, 13.1 mmol), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 min. 1-Chloro-3-iodopropane (1.34 mL, 12.5 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 15 hr. Water was added to the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexane=0/100 – 30/70) to give tert-butyl 5-chloro-2-[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]pentanoate (3.63 g, 91%). A solution of tert-butyl 5-chloro-2-[2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]pentanoate (3.56 g, 9.83 mmol) in TFA (10 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 18 hr. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, ethyl acetate was added, and the mixture was extracted with 1 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. The extract was acidified with 6 M hydrochloric acid, extracted with ethyl acetate, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to give the title compound as a colorless oil (2.74 g, 99%). 1H NMR (CDCl3) delta: 1.55 – 1.75 (1 H, m), 1.76 – 2.04 (2 H, m), 2.16 – 2.34 (1 H, m), 3.50 (2 H, t, J=6.3 Hz), 4.06 (1 H, t, J=7.3 Hz), 7.31 – 7.45 (1 H, m), 7.46 – 7.62 (2 H, m), 7.67 (1 H, d, J=7.7 Hz).
The synthetic route of 36805-97-7 has been constantly updated, and we look forward to future research findings.
