Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-[(2-{4-[2-(2-methylpyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy]phenyl}-1,3-oxazol-4-yl)acetyl]piperidine i54 (0.13 g, 0.33 mmol, 1 eq) in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) is treated with borane-tetrahydrofuran complex (1.0 M in tetrahydrofuran, 1.3 ml, 1.3 mmol, 4 eq) and the resulting mixture is refluxed overnight. A 2 N sodium hydroxide solution is added to reach pH 10 and the mixture is refluxed for 6 h. A saturated solution of aqueous ammonium chloride is added and the solution is extracted two times with ethyl acetate. The organic layers are dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under vacuum. Purification by chromatography over silicagel (eluent: dichloromethane/methanol/ammonia 96/3.6/0.4) gives 0.115 g of 1-[2-(2-{4-[2-(2-methylpyrrolidin-1-yl)ethoxy]phenyl}-1,3-oxazol-4-yl)ethyl]piperidine 121.
