Amylocaine was the first synthetic
spinal anesthesia.[2]
Synthesis
Grignard reaction of chloroacetone (1) with one mole of magnesium ethyl bromide gives 1-chloro-2-methyl-butan-2-ol [74283-48-0] (2). Heating with dimethylamine gives 1-(dimethylamino)-2-methylbutan-2-ol [74347-10-7] (3). These two steps can also be treated as interchangeable. Esterification with benzoyl chloride completed the synthesis of amylocaine (4).[3][4]
