2-bromo-1-phenylhexan-1-one - what can be synthesized?

[lheartamines]

Hi Everyone, I was shipped 2-bromo-1-phenylhexan-1-one by mistake. What can be synthesized with this? I can't find much information on this precursor.

You can synthesize α-php, N-ethyl hexedrone, Hexedrone, etc.

 

[lheartamines]

For hexadrone, I would assume the standard methylamination with a solvent (dcm .ea, nmp) ? I don't have any pyrrolidine around.

 

[Germanium]

Yes. I think you're correct.

Where did you got it?
