Reaction Steps

A mixture of ethyl 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylate hydrochloride (1.0 g, 7.74 mmol), 2-bromoacetophenone (3.08 g, 15.5 mmol), and NaHCO3 (1.30 g, 15.5 mmol) in DMF (20 mL) was stirred at ambient temperature for 18 h. H2O (20 mL) was added and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (2×75 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by HPLC using a reversed phase C18 column and eluting with a gradient of H2O:CH3CN:CF3CO2H-90:10:0.1 to 5:95:0.1. The product-containing fractions were combined, adjusted to pH 10 by addition of saturated aqueous Na2CO3 and extracted with EtOAc (2×75 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to provide the title compound. MS: m/z=248 (M+1).
