Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 5-(dimethylamino)methyl-2-furanmethanol (6.2 g) and ethylene imine (2.82 g) in dry tetrahydrofuran was added a solution of methanesulphonic acid (11.6 g) in tetrahydrofuran (40 ml). The solution was evaporated and the oily residue heated at 98°-100° for 10 mins. After 18 hr, 5N sodium hydroxide (60 ml) was added and the solution evaporated to dryness. Anhydrous sodium sulphate and ethyl acetate (150 ml) were added and after 2 hr the suspension was filtered, treated with decolourising charcoal and evaporated. The resulting oil was chromatographed on silica, firstly with methanol-ammonia 0.88 79:1, and the eluate discarded, and secondly with methanol-ammonia 0.88 19:1. This eluate was evaporated to give an oil from which the bisoxalate salt of 2-[[5-(dimethylamino)methyl-2-furanyl]methoxy]ethanamine (from ethanol) 0.2 g, m.p. 125°-128°, was obtained. Route (ii)
