Methylamine → HCID 22941792, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

6.3 g of methylamine is condensed in a pressure pipe while being cooled with ice in a solution of 8.2 g of 17β-acetoxy-3-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-7α-(5-p-toluenesulfonyloxypentyl)-estra-1,3,5(10)-triene in 80 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The closed pressure pipe is then heated for 6 hours to 60° C. After cooling, it is evaporated to dryness in a vacuum, and the residue is chromatographed on silica gel. 5.1 g of 17β-acetoxy-7α-(5-methylaminopentyl)-3-(tetrahydropyran-2-yloxy)-estra-1,3,5(10)-triene is obtained as an oil. [α]D=+29.7° (c=0.535% in chloroform)
