Participants

Reaction Steps

The product of step (d) (0.85 g) and cyclohexene (2.35 g) in dry dichloromethane (40 ml) were cooled to -80° and boron tribromide (9.3 ml., of a 1M solution in dichloromethane) was added under nitrogen. The mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature overnight then excess reagent was destroyed by the addition of methanol. The solution was evaporated to dryness and the residue triturated with ethyl acetate to give a grey solid. Recrystalisation from 2-propanol gave the title compound as the dihydrobromide salt (0.3 g) mp 208°-9°.
