참여 물질

반응 단계

A solution of 1.2 g (4.2 mmol) of (±)-trans-2-ethyl-4a-(3-methoxyphenyl)-6-oxo-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,7,8,8a-decahydroisoquinoline and 1.8 g (12.6 mmol) of proton sponge in 34 ml of 1,2-dichloroethane was treated with 1.4 ml (16.8 mmol) of vinylchloroformate at 0° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was stirred at this temperature for 15 min and then refluxed for 3 h, the solvent was removed in vacuo, the residue was taken up in water and extracted with Et2O. The organic layer was washed with 3% HCl, then was dried over Na2SO4 and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The dark residue was dissolved in EtOH, 3 ml of concentrated HCl were added and the solution refluxed for 3 hours. The solvent was removed in vacuo, obtaining 0.88 g of the title compound which was used as such in the subsequent step. M.p.=90° C. dec.
