Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3β-[3'-iodo-4'-aminophenyl]tropan-2β-carboxylic acid methyl ester dihydrochloride (1a) (90 mg, 0.1902 mmol) in 1 mL of AcOH (3M) was added an aqueous solution of NaNO2 (17.3 mg, 0.2661 mmol, in 0.5 mL of H2O) at 0° C. After 30 min at this temperature NaN3 (19 mg, 0.2754 mmol) in 0.5 mL of H2O was added dropwise to the reaction mixture and stirred for 30 min at 0° C., then 30 min at room temperature. After removal of all solvent by evaporation, the residue was dissolved in CHCl3 and washed with H2O. The organic layer was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated to give an oil which was converted to HCl salt to yield 64 mg (72.7%) of 3β-[3'-iodo-4'-azidophenyl]tropan-2β-carboxylic acid methyl ester hydrochloride (1b) as a yellowish solid: mp 140°-143° C.; [α]25 -97.4° (c 0.115), MeOh); 1HNMR (250MHz, CDCl3) δ1.51-1.73 (m, 3) 2.07-2.16 (m, 2), 2.19 (s, 3, NCH3) 2.47 (m, 1), 2.80-2.93 (m, 2), 3.32 (m, 1, H-5), 3.51 (s, 3, OCH3), 3.54 (m, 1, H-1), 7.01 (d, 1, J-7.7, ArH), 7.28 (dd, 1, J=7.77, J=1, ArH), 7.60 (d, 1, J=1, ArH).
