Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-hydroxy-naphthalene-1-carbaldehyde (15.2 g, 58.1 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) at r.t. was added N-Boc 3-bromo-propylamine (15.2 g, 63.9 mmol), followed by potassium carbonate (12 g, 87.2 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. Water was added to the reaction mixture and extracted by CH2Cl2. The combined organic layers were washed with water, brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was recrystallized from EtOAc/hexane to afford [3-(4-formyl-naphthalen-1-yloxy)-propyl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (13.8 g, 72%) as a light yellow solid.
