Reaktionsschritte

Diethyl azodicarboxylate (60.5 mL, 384 mmol) was added to an ice-cooled mixture of (S)-(−)-1-benzyl-3-pyrrolidinol (56.72 g, 320 mmol), 4-fluorophenol (39.45 g, 352 mmol) and triphenyl phosphine (100.7 g, 384 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (500 mL) and the mixture was stirred for 18 hours, allowing the temperature to rise to ambient. The reaction mixture was then concentrated in vacuo and the residue was taken up in pentane:dichloromethane, 90:10. The resulting precipitate was filtered off and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was then purified by column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with dichloromethane. The appropriate fractions were evaporated under reduced pressure and a portion of the residue (5 g) was dissolved in methanol (100 mL). 10% Pd/C (0.5 g) and ammonium formate (5.8 g, 92 mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. The mixture was then filtered through Arbocel® and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo purified by column chromatography on silica gel, eluting with dichloromethane; methanol, 0.88 ammonia, 95:5:0.5 to 90:10:1, to afford the title compound as a colourless oil. 1H NMR(400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ: 2.03(m, 2H), 3.10-3.29(m, 3H), 3.36(m, 1H), 5.01(m, 1H), 6.96(m, 2H), 7.08(m, 2H).
