Reaction Steps

7-Methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalen-1-one (5 g) was dissolved in methanol and sodium tetrahydroborate (1.3 g) was added thereto at 0° C. After reacting at room temperature for 2 hr, the reaction solution was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with water, dried and concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (5.19 g) as a colorless oil. (280-2) 1-(4-Acetylpiperazin-1-yl)-7-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene
