Reaktionsschritte

To a three-neck, round-bottomed flask containing freshly distilled ether (125 mL) and magnesium turnings (268 mg, 11.0 mmol),was added 3,4-dichloroiodobenzene (2.26 g, 8.27 mmol). After 2 h, the reaction flask was equipped with a mechanical stirrer, and the Grignard reagent was cooled to -55° C. before adding anhydroecgonine methyl ester (500 mg, 2.75 mmol). The resulting solution was stirred for an additional 2.5 h before being cooled to -78° C. After 1 h, 2 mL of trifluoroacetic acid was added to the solution followed by 2 h of stirring. The quenched reaction mixture was then diluted with 1N HCl (100 mL) and extracted with ether (3×100 mL). The ethereal layers were discarded, and the aqueous layer was basified with conc. ammonium hydride and then extracted with chloroform (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried (MgSO4) and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield the crude product as a colorless oil. Flash chromatography (ether triethylamine, 9:1) yielded 71 mg (9.0%) of pure product: 1H NMR (250 MHz, CDCl3) δ1.52-1.76 (m, 2), 1.81-1.95 (m, 2), 1.96-2.22 (m, 2), 2.38 (s, 3), 3.07-3.15 (br s, 2), 3.21-3.32 (br s, 1), 3.45-3.65 (m, 1), 3.50 (s, 3), 7.10-7.38 (m, 3).
