Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3[(4-methoxyphenyl)methoxy]-6-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane (10.21 g, 46.4 mmol) in ethanol (66 ml) was added bis(prop-2-en-1-yl)amine (CAS number 124-02-7; 13.51 g, 139 mmol). The reaction was heated in a sealed vial at 105° C. for 72 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo then purified by column chromatography (silica, 0-50% ethyl acetate/petrol then 0-30% (0.1% ammonia/methanol)/ethyl acetate) to afford the title compound.
