Reaktionsschritte

2-Fluorobenzaldehyde (1.0 g, 8.1 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (20 mL), morpholine (2.0 mL) and potassium carbonate (1.1 g, 8.1 mmol) were added thereto, and then the mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 2 days. To the reaction solution was added water, and the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was dried, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified with silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=98:2 to 60:40) to give an oily matter. The resulting oily matter was dissolved in methanol (20 mL), sodium borohydride (613 mg, 16.2 mmol) was added thereto, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. To the reaction solution was added water, and the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was dried, and then concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (474 mg, yield 30%).
