Tetrabutylammonium Fluoride → HCID 25253850, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

[Step 3] 615 mg of 1-acetyl-4-[(4-tert-butyldiphenylsilyloxymethylphenyl)amino]-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline was dissolved in 2 mL of tetrahydrofuran, and 2.8 mL of tetrabutylammonium fluoride (1.0M tetrahydrofuran solution) was added to the solution. The mixture was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature. After completion of the reaction, the reaction liquid was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with a saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and saturated brine, dehydrated over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by using silica gel chromatography (developing solvent: ether only), and thus 264 mg (79%) of 1-acetyl-4-[(4-hydroxymethylphenyl)amino]-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline was obtained as a yellow oily substance (cis:trans=3:1).
