57. For the amination of 4-chloroanisole with morpholine we also attempted to scale-up with a factor 36 (36 mmol 4-chloroanisole, 43.2 mmol morpholine, 50.4 mmol NaOt-Bu, 36 mL BTF) in the 80 mL vessel of the Discover apparatus. In the same reaction time as for the 1 mmol and 20 mmol experiments (10 min) an isolated yield of 73% of 4-(4-methoxyphenyl)morpholine could be obtained. This is similar to the yield obtained on a 1 mmol scale (78%) but lower than the isolated yield of the 20 mmol experiment (85%).
