(3-BROMOBENZYL)METHYLAMINE synthesis
- Product Name:(3-BROMOBENZYL)METHYLAMINE
- CAS Number:67344-77-8
- Molecular formula:C8H10BrN
- Molecular Weight:200.08
Yield: 81%
Reaction Conditions:
with sodium tetrahydroborate in methanol;water at 0 - 20; for 3.5 h;Product distribution / selectivity;
Steps:
72.B; 81.A
Step B: To a solution of 3-bromobenzaldehyde (47.5 mL, 0.4 mol) in methanol (460 mL) at room temperature was added a solution of methylamine in water (35 mL, 0.4 mol, 40 wt. % solution). The resultant solution was cooled to 0° C. and sodium borohydride (22 g, 0.6 mol) was added to it in portions. The reaction solution was stirred at 0° C. for 3 hours and 30 minutes, and then warmed to room temperature. The resultant reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and partitioned between dichloromethane and water. The aqueous layer was separated and washed with dichloromethane (3×). The combined organic extract was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give the desired benzylamine (76 g, 81%) as a clear oil: 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.48 (d, J=1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.40-7.37 (m, 1H), 7.24-7.16 (m, 2H), 3.73 (s, 2H), 2.45 (s, 3H).; Example 81 Preparation of (+)-N-methyl-2-(2-methyl-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[c]azepin-8-yl)ethanesulfonamide, L-tartrate salt and (-)-N-methyl-2-(2-methyl-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[c]azepin-8-yl)ethanesulfonamide, L-tartrate salt Step A: To a solution of 3-bromobenzaldehyde (47.5 mL, 0.4 mol) in methanol (460 mL) at room temperature was added a solution of methylamine in water (35 mL, 0.4 mol, 40 wt % solution).
