Sodium Iodide → Methyl 8-(4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl)-1-(2-methyl-2-propen-1-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-benzoazocine-5-carboxylate

To a solution of sodium hydroxide (530 mg) in DMF (10 ml) was added dropwise a solution of methyl 8-(4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl)-1,2,3,4-terahydro-1-benzoazocine-5-carboxylate (1.8 g) in DMF (20 ml) at 0° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. After returning to room temperature and stirring for 1 hour, 3-bromo-2-methylpropene (1.33 ml) and sodium iodide (1.98 g) were added, and the mixture was stirred at 100° C. overnight. After returning to room temperature, water and saturated brine were added and the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water twice and with saturated brine once, and dried with magnesium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=12:1→hexane:ethyl acetate=9:1). The resulting residue was recrystallized from hexane-ethyl acetate to give methyl 8-(4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl)-1-(2-methyl-2-propen-1-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-benzoazocine-5-carboxylate (1.64 g) as yellow crystals.
