Reaktionsschritte

Combine 6-(4-formyl-phenoxy)-nicotinamide (0.61 g, 2.54 mmol) with 2-Cyclopentyl-ethylamine (0.38 g, 3.3 mmol), 2 g of 3 {acute over (Å)} molecular sieves, and 10 mL of methanol. Stir for 18 h under nitrogen. Add sodium borohydride (0.5 g, 13.2 mmol), and stir for 24 h. Filter through Celite, remove the solvent in vacuo. Partition the residue between water (50 mL) and ethyl acetate (100 mL). Dry the organic phase (sodium sulfate), filter, and concentrate in vacuo. Adsorb on silica, and purify on an ISCO® 100 g system (eluting with 95:5:0.5 to 90:10:1 chloroform/ethanol/ammonium hydroxide) to afford 0.45 g of product. HPLC retention time: 5.93 min (98.7% purity), ESMS (M+): 340.
