Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

14.7 g of 4-methoxy-3-[2-(tetrahydro-2-pyranyloxy)ethoxy]styrene oxide was dissolved in 770 ml of ethanol, and 55 g of 4-phenyl-2-butylamine was added. The mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 40 minutes. After the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was chromatographed on a silica gel column to afford 7.73 g (yield 34.9%) of 1-[4-methoxy-3-[2-(tetrahydro-2-pyranyloxy)ethoxy]phenyl]-2-(1-methyl-3-phenylpropyl)aminoethanol.
