Reaction Steps

Thus (±)-cis-7-methoxy-3-(4-methylphenyl)-4-(4-(2-pyrrolidinoethoxy)phenyl)-chromane was de-methylated by heating with pyridine hydrochloride to give the racemic mixture, (±)-cis-7-hydroxy-3-(4-methylphenyl)-4-(4-(2-pyrrolidinoethoxy)-phenyl)chromane. The title compound was then separated from this racemic mixture by means of preparative chiral HPLC {Chiradex 5 μm, 250×25 mm column; flow=20 ml/min; 50% methanol, 50% buffer (0.2% aqueous triethylammonium acetate, pH 3.5) eluent, 220 nm UV detection}. The title compound was the more rapidly eluted enantiomer, Rt=10-18 min.
