Participants

Reaction Steps

Reductive amination of 3-amino-5-phenyl-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (0.933 g, 4.0 mmol) and tetrahydro-thiopyran-4-one (0.464 g, 4.0 mmol) in THF (1.0 mL) employing Bu2SnCl2 (60.5 mg, 0.2 mmol) and PhSiH3 (0.476 g, 0.542 mL) was carried out as described for example 13, step 1 gave 5-phenyl-3-(tetrahydro-thiopyran-4-ylamino)-thiophene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (0.753 g, 56.3%). NMR 1H (CDCl3, 400 MHz): 7.64-7.6 (m, 2H), 7.44-7.34 (m, 3H), 6.9 (brm, 1H), 6.81 (brs, 1H), 3.84 (s, 3H), 3.5-3.4 (m, 1H), 2.85-2.7 (m, 4H), 2.4-2.25 (m, 2H), 1.85-1.7 (m, 2H).
