Participants

Reaction Steps

Following general procedure G and using 2-fluoro-4-(8,8-dimethyl-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalene-2-ylethynyl)-benzoic acid ethyl ester (Compound 9, 0.132 g, 0.3 mmol), dichloromethane (4 mL), acetonitrile(2 mL), cyclopropyl amine(1 mL, 14.45 mmol), acetic acid (1 mL) and sodium cyanoborohydride (0.1 8 g, 2.86 mmol) followed by flash column chromatography over silica gel (230-400 mesh) using 16-20% ethyl acetate in hexane as the eluent, the title compound was obtained as a pale yellow oil (0.1g, 82%).
