Reaction Steps

Mixture of (R)-2-Benzyl-8-bromo-1,2,3,4,11,11a-hexahydro-pyrazino[1,2-b]isoquinolin-6-one (25 mg, 0.067 mmol), CuCN (12.9 mg, 0.14 mmol) and CuI (3.7 mg, 0.29 mmol) in 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone (1.5 mL) was stirred at 190° C. for 83 min in microwave. The reaction was cooled to RT and added EtOAc (20 mL) and H2O (5 mL). Filtered off the precipitate and rinsed with EtOAc (50 mL). The organic layer was separated and washed with brine (5 mL), dried over MgSO4, and conc in vacuo to give crude product. Purified by prep TLC (SiO2, 95:5, CH2Cl2:MeOH) to yield crude product as a yellow oil. MS (ESI) 318 (M+H).
