Tetrahydrofuran → 5-Amino-2-(tetrahydro-pyran-4-ylmethyl)-2H-isoquinolin-1-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-Nitro-2-(tetrahydro-pyran-4-ylmethyl)-2H-isoquinolin-1-one (0.78 g, 0.0027 mol) and tin dichloride dihydrate (2 g, 0.01 mol) were stirred in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL, 0.1 mol) at room temperature for 24 hours. The mixture was partitioned between EtOAc (100 mL) and saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution, separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (50 mL×3). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, and purified via flash chromatography (40 g of silica gel, 0-100% EtOAc/Hexanes) to give a yellow solid. MS m/z (M+H) 259.2.
