After addition was complete, the cooling bath was removed and stirring was continued for 18 h. The solution was poured over ice/H2O (100 mL) and extracted with 2.5N NaOH. The basic extracts were combined, washed with dichloromethane, and acidified (conc. HCl). The acidic solution was extracted with dichloromethane, the organics were combined, washed with brine, dried (MgSO4), and concentrated to afford 2.49 g (75%) of the title compound: 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6)δ0.72-0.84 (m, 5H), 1.09-1.15 (m, 1H), 1.42-1.54 (m, 2H), 1.63-1.69 (m, 1H), 2.02 (t, J=5.0 Hz, 2H), 2.99-3.11 (m, 2H), 6.39-6.50 (m, 3H), 6.98 (t, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 7.91 (s, 1H), 9.19 (br s, 1H); IR (NaCl Film) 3300, 2964, 1642, 1585, 1542, 1466 cm-1 ; MS (isobutane--DCI) m/e 233; Analysis calc'd for C14H19NO2.0.1 H2O: C, 71.52; H, 8.23; N, 5.96; found: C, 71.53; H, 8.32; N, 5.92.
