Furfural → HCID 22018852, 화합물

To a stirred solution of N-(t-butyloxycarbonyl)-N-(2-pyridinylmethyl)-N′-(5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-8-quinolinyl)-1,4-benzenedimethanamine (0.206 g, 0.449 mmol) in anhydrous methanol (10 mL), at room temperature, was added furfural (0.19 mL, 2.29 mmol) followed by NaBH3CN (0.070 g, 1.11 mmol) and the resultant solution was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and CH2Cl2 (20 mL) and 1.0 M aqueous NaOH (10 mL) were added to the residue. The phases were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×10 mL). The combined organic phases were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. Purification of the crude material by column chromatography silica gel (25:1 CH2Cl2-MeOH) provided 0.103 g of the protected amine as a yellow oil.
