A solution of borane dimethyl sulphide (23 mmol of a 10M solution in THF) was added slowly to a stirred solution of 3-[4-(N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)phenyl]propanoic acid (VIII, n=2) [Everett, J. L., Roberts, J. J., Ross W. C. J., "Aryl-2-halogenoalkylamines. Part XII. Some carboxylic acid derivatives of N,N-di-2-chloroethylaniline", J. Chem. Soc., 1953 2386-2392] (5.5 g, 19 mmol) in TEF (190 mL) maintained at 0° C. under a N2 atmosphere. After the initial effervescence the solution was stirred for a further 4 h before being quenched with MeOH and concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was partitioned between aqueous NaHCO3 and EtOAc, and the residue from the organic phase was percolated through a pad of SiO2 (EtOAc elution) to give the crude alcohol, which was used without further purification. DMSO (1.15 mol equiv.) was added to a stirred solution of oxalyl chloride (1.1 mol equiv.) in THF (5 mL per mmol of alcohol) maintained at -78° C. under a N2 atmosphere. Stirring was continued for 10 min after which a solution of the above alcohol (1 mol equiv.) in THF (5 mL per mmol of alcohol) was added. Stirring was continued at -78° C. for a further 15 min before Et3N (5.0 mol equiv.) was added and the mixture brought slowly to room temperature. The reaction mixture was partitioned between H2O/EtOAc and the residue from the organic layer was chromatographed on SiO2 and eluted with petroleum ether/EtOAc (3:1) to give pure 3-[4-(N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)amino]phenyl)propanal (IX, n=2) as an unstable oil (3.4 g, 68% overall yield). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 9.80 (t, J1,2 =1.6 Hz, 1 H, CHO), 7.08 (d, J2',3' =8.8 Hz, 2 H, H-2',H-6'), 6.62 (d, J2',3' =8.8 Hz, 2 H, H-3',H-5'), 3.69 (complex t, J=6.5 Hz, 4 H, NCH2CH2Cl), 3.68 (complex t, J=6.5 Hz, 4 H, NCH2CH2Cl), 2.87 (t, J2,3 =7.4 Hz, 2 H, H-3), 2.72 (br dt, J2,3 =7.4 Hz, and J1,2 =1.6 Hz, 2 H, H2), 2.12 (complex m, 4 H, H-2). 13C NMR δ 201.88, 144.56, 129.53, 129.36, 112.28, 53.54, 45.50, 40.48, 27.04.
