Participants

Reaction Steps

Using the procedure to synthesize Example 12 and using reagents 3-(3-chloro-6-hydroxy-benzo[b]thiophen-2-ylmethyl)-1-cyclohexyl-pyrrolidin-2-one (150 mg, 0.412 mmol), (3-bromo-propyl)-dimethyl-amine hydrochloride (167 mg, 0.824 mmol), sodium iodide (62 mg, 0.412 mmol), and cesium carbonate (1.07 g, 3.30 mmol) afford the freebase of the title compound. Dissolve freebase in dichloromethane (5 mL) and add HCl in ether (2M, 0.4 mL), concentrate to give title compound (105 mg, 52%) as a yellow solid: Mass spectrum (apci) m/z=449.3 (M+H).
