Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 0.15 g (0.39 mmol) of (7S,8aS)-7-(3-(methoxycarbonyl)phenoxy)methyl-2-(5-fluoropyrimidin-2-yl)-1,2,3,4,6,7,8,8a-octahydro-pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine (Example 11j) in 15 mL of anhydrous ethyl ether was added dropwise to an ice-cold suspension of 0.029 g (0.78 mmol) of lithium aluminum hydride in 15 mL of anhdrous ethyl ether and the mixture stirred for 30 min. The reaction was carefully quenched at 0° C. with 0.029 mL of water, 0.029 mL of 15% sodium hydroxide, and 0.087 mL of water. The precipiate which formed was filtered through Celite, the filtrate concentrated in vacuo, and purification of the residue by flash silica gel chromatography with 95:5 chloroform:methanol gave 0.099 g (72%) of the title compound. Mp (.HCl) 85-89° C. HRMS calc'd for C19H24FN4O2 (MH+): 359.1883, found: 359.1895.
