(1R)-1-phenyl-N-(trimethylsilylmethyl)ethanamine

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: The title compound was prepared from (R)-(+)-N-1-phenylethyl-N-trimethylsilylmethylamine by reaction with n-butanol and aqueous formaldehyde following the procedure of Example 2 to give the crude acetal (85% pure) as a colourless oil (34.2 g, 84%). The nmr spectrum was identical to the above (S)-isomer.

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.
