Trifluoroacetic acid → HCID 22082733, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To an ice-cooled solution of (R)-N-[8-(4-tert-butyloxycarbonylpiperazin-1-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-naphthyl]-4-morpholinophenylcarboxamide (1.0 g, 2 mmol) in methylene chloride (100 mL) was added trifluoroacetic acid (3 mL). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for 7 h. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was dissolved in water (20 mL), alkalized with a 2 M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted, twice, with methylene chloride. The phases were separated, the combined organic phases were dried (Na2SO4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo. Purification on a silica gel column using chloroform/methanol/concentrated ammonium hydroxide (95:5:0.5) as the eluent gave 580 mg (70% yield) of the title compound as white crystals: mp 202-203° C.; [α]21D -56° (c 1.0, chloroform); EIMS (70 eV) m/z (relative intensity) 420 (5, M+).
