반응 단계

A mixture of 63.5 g of N-cyclopentylmethyl-9-anthracenemethylamine, 50 g of propargyl bromide, 200 ml of methylene chloride and 200 ml of 10% aqueous, potassium carbonate solution is stirred vigorously under nitrogen for two hours. The layers are separated and the aqueous layer is extracted once with methylene chloride. Removal of the solvent from the dried extract gives 63.5 g of N-cyclopentylmethyl-N-propargyl-9-anthracenemethylamine as an oil; nmr spectrum: τ 2.3-3.0 (m, 9); 5.5 (s, 2) 6.8 (d, 2.5Hz, 2); 7.5 (m, 2); 7.7 (t, 2.5Hz, 1) and 7.5-9.2 (m, 9). This product is cyclized by heating under reflux in 200 ml toluene for 1.25 hours. Removal of the solvent and crystallization of the residue from 150 ml of isopropyl alcohol gives 44.4 g of 2-cyclopentylmethyl-1,2,3,5-tetrahydro-5,9b-o-benzenobenz[e]isoindole, identical by infrared and nmr spectroscopy with the sample prepared by acylation of 1,2,3,5-tetrahydro-5,9b-o-benzenobenz[e]isoindole with cyclopentanecarbonyl chloride followed by reduction.
