Water → 4-(4-Fluoro-phenyl)-2-isopropyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-quinazolin-7-ol

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(4-fluoro-phenyl)-2-isopropyl-5,8-dihydro-6H-quinazolin-7-one (0.126 g) in EtOH (3 mL) was added NaBH4 (0.053 g). After 16 h, the mixture was treated with 1 M NaOH (5 mL) and water (10 mL). The mixture was stirred for 30 min then extracted with CH2Cl2. The organic layer was dried and concentrated. Chromatography on SiO2 (10 to 35% EtOAc/hexanes) afforded 0.98 g of the title compound. TLC (SiO2, 50% EtOAc/hexanes): Rf=0.18. MS (ESI): exact mass calcd. for C17H19FN2O, 286.15; m/z found, 287.3 [M+H]+.
