I have prepared 2-Amino-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3-propanediol by acid catalysed deamidation of chloramphenicol and confirmed the structure by LC-MS. I need to purify the product and determine its purity. I need suggestions on workup for this reaction.
This will be highly polar and highly soluble in wáter. Take pH to 10 and extract or use a carboxylic acid resin to concéntrate then elute with proper solvent.
I think , it's necessary to check the reaction completion by TLC firstly ,then you can purify your product by solvents extraction process .If it's not work you can purified with CC technique .
