Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-(3-bromo-4-fluoro-phenyl)-4-hydroxy-3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.93 g, 4.57 mmol) and triethylsilane (5 mL) at 25° C. was added trifluoroacetic acid (1 mL) dropwise. The resulting mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 1 h. Then the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×50 mL), washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (2×20 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. Purification on flash silica gel chromatography (silica gel from QingDao, 200-300 mesh, glass column from Shanghai SD company) (10% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to afford 2-(3-bromo-4-fluoro-phenyl)-3,3-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-quinoline-6-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (0.63 g, 34%) as a white solid: LC/MS m/e calcd for C20H21BrFNO2 M+: 406.3, observed: 406.2, 408.2.
