Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 4-[2-(4-hydroxymethyl-2-methyl-4,5-dihydro-oxazol-4-yl)-ethyl]-phenol (300 mg, 1.27 mmol) in DMF (5 ml) was added Cs2CO3 (1.2 g, 3.83 mmol) and (3-bromo-propoxy)-benzene (273 mg, 1.27 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 85° C. for 4 hours. AcOEt and water were then added, the organic layer was separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with AcOEt (3×50 ml). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, and evaporated to dryness. Purification by flash chromatography (AcOEt/Hexane 9:1) affords (2-methyl-4-{2-[4-(3-phenoxy-propoxy)-phenyl]-ethyl}-4,5-dihydro-oxazol-4-yl)-methanol as colorless oil. To a solution of (2-methyl-4-{2-[4-(3-phenoxy-propoxy)-phenyl]-ethyl}-4,5-dihydro-oxazol-4-yl)-methanol (50 mg, 0.135 mmol) in ethanol (2 ml) was added conc. HCl (2 ml). The reaction mixture was stirred at 85° C. for 2 hours, then concentrated to dryness. The residue was re-dissolved in AcOEt and precipitated with hexanes. The solid was filtered off, washed with dry ether and dried in vacuo to afford 2-amino-2-{2-[4-(3-phenoxy-propoxy)-phenyl]-ethyl}-propane-1,3-diol hydro-chloride as a colorless powder. ESI+ MS: m/z=370.4 (M+H)+.
