Reaktionsschritte

2-Bromo-1-(4-morpholin-4-ylphenyl)ethanone (Tetrahedron Letters; 39, (1998), 4987-4990)(3.40 g, 11.97 mmol) was dissolved in dry THF (30 ml) under N2 and cooled in ice. A 2M solution of methylamine in THF (12 ml, 24 mmol) was added and the reaction stirred for 1 hr. The mixture was filtered and the filtrate treated with di-t-butyl carbonate (2.61 g, 12 mmol) at ice temperature. Stirring was continued for 24 hr then the solvent evaporated. Chromatography of the residue over silica gel (500 g) eluting with 1% MeOH-1% Et3N-EtOAc gave the product as a pale yellow solid (1.53 g, 38%): mp87-89°.
