Allyl bromide → HCID 69802498, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

0.2 g (0.596 mmol) of (±)-cis-7-[(4-phenylpiperdin-1-yl)methyl]-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-5-ol dissolved in 5 ML THF were added dropwise to a suspension of 0.029 g (0.715 mmol) of NaH (60% dispersion in mineral oil) in 10 mL THF. After 30 min at room temperature, 0.12 mL of allyl bromide were added and the reaction mixture was refluxed 8 h. After cooling, the reaction mixture was quenched by addition of MeOH and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was taken up in 1 N NaOH and extracted with CH2Cl2; the organic phase was dried and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The resulting crude product was purified by chromatography, eluting with a mixture CH2Cl2/MeOH 100:2 respectively, yielding an oil which was dissolved in Et2O; the solution was brought to acidic pH with Et2O/HCl and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The resulting solid was triturated with Et2O, yielding 65 mg of the title product. m.p. 126-128° C.
