Reaction Steps

N-(2-Fluoro-5-hydroxyphenyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalimide (VI) (20 g), isopropyl bromide (25 g), potassium iodide (5 g) and anhydrous potassium carbonate (11 g) were dissolved in a mixture of acetonitrile (135 g) and dimethylformamide (15 g), and the resultant solution was heated under reflux for 7 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was concentrated, and the precipitated crystals were collected by filtration to give 23.2 g of N-(2-fluoro-5-isopropoxyphenyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydrophthalimide (II: R=isopropyl). M.P. 62.8° C.
