1,3-Propanediamine, N'-(ethylcarbonimidoyl)-N,N-dimethyl-, monohydrochloride → 1-{2-oxo-2-[7-(trifluoromethyl)-3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl]ethyl}-3,3-diphenylpyrrolidin-2-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 7-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (0.037 g, 0.186 mmol), 2-(2-oxo-3,3-diphenylpyrrolidin-1-yl)acetic acid (Example 1C, 0.050 g, 0.169 mmol) and N1-((ethylimino)methylene)-N3,N3-dimethylpropane-1,3-diamine hydrochloride (0.049 g, 0.254 mmol) in dichloromethane (0.5 mL) was stirred at room temperature. After stirring for approximately 60 hours, the reaction was loaded directly onto a SF15-12 silica gel column (Analogix®, Burlington, Wis.), and the title compound was eluted using a gradient of 5% to 100% ethyl acetate/hexanes over 20 minutes (flow=30 mL/minute). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 7.15-7.40 (m, 13H), 4.55-4.80 (m, 2H), 4.25 (s, 2H), 3.60-3.85 (m, 2H), 3.45-3.55 (m, 2H), 2.70-2.90 (m, 4H); MS (ESI+) m/z 471 (M+H)+.
