Procedure
To a mixture of 1,2-dihydronaphthalene (5.12 g) and trifluoroacetone (1.34 g) in acetonitrile (60 ml) and aqueous potassium carbonate (1.5M in 0.4 mM EDTA, 60 ml) was added H2O2 (30%, 18.2 ml) at 0° C. Upon stirring at 0° C. for 4 hours, the rxn mixture was extracted with Et2O, washed with aqueous Na2S2O3 (1M) and brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated. The epoxide was used without purification. A mixture of 1a,2,3,7b-tetrahydronaphtho[1,2-b]oxirene and ammonium hydroxide was stirred at 40° C. for 3 days. The excess solvent was removed in vacuo. Flash chromatography (Silica gel, 1:20 MeOH:CH2Cl2, 0.5% NH4OH) gave the title compound. HRMS (FAB) calcd for C10H13NO+H 164.1075, found 164.1075.
