Reaction Steps

8-fluoro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrodibenzo[b,d]furan-2-carbaldehyde (0.040 g, 0.18 mmol), [(2S)-8-methyl-2,3-dihydro[1,4]dioxino[2,3-f]quinolin-2-yl]methylamine (0.042 g, 0.18 mmol), and NaBH3CN (0.023 g, 0.38 mmol) were stirred together in MeOH (1.2 mL) under a N2 atmosphere. To this mixture was added AcOH (0.023 mL) and reaction was allowed to stir for 3 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated and the resulting oil was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel to afford title compound as a mixture of two diastereomers (0.068 g, 88%). The diastereomers were separated by HPLC on a Chiracel AD column (2×25 cm), eluting with 100% ethanol; MS (ES) m/z=433.1 [M+H]+.
