Hydrochloric Acid → (1S,2R)-2-(3-Ketopyrrolidinyl)-1-[3-(cyclohexyl)propoxy]cyclohexane monohydrochloride

(1R,2R)/(1S,2S)-2-[1,4-Dioxa-7-azaspiro[4.4]non-7-yl]-1-[3-(cyclohexyl)propoxy]cyclohexane (ii) in a mixture of 6M HCl aqueous solution-butanone (1:4, v/v, 100 mL) was refluxed for 16 hours. The cooled reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residual aqueous solution was diluted with water (˜50 mL). The acidic aqueous solution was extracted with diethyl ether (50 mL) and then with dichloromethane (3×50 mL). The dichloromethane extracts were dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent was evaporated in vacuo to provide the crude title compound. The hydrochloride salt was crystallized by triturating in a mixture of diethyl ether-hexanes (1:1, v/v, ˜200 mL) and then precipitated from a mixture of dichloromethane-diethyl ether-hexanes to yield 0.8 g of the title compound, having the elemental analysis indicated in Table 1.
