10-AMINO-1-DECANOL

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

Procedure: In an argon atmosphere, a mixture of methyl benzoate (3.0 mmol), 10-aminodecan-1-ol (3.6 mmol), Zn4(OCOCF3)6O (1.25 mol % in terms of mole number) and diisopropyl ether (5.0 ml) was heated to reflux for 20 hours, and as a result, 10-aminodecyl benzoate was obtained at a yield of 90%. The yield of 10-benzoylaminodecyl benzoate was 7%. was heated to reflux for 20 hours
