14.7 g (82.7 mmol) of bis(2-chloroethyl)amine×HCl were added to 13.0 g (82.7 mmol) of 1-amino-2-methylnaphthalene in 100 ml of chlorobenzene, and the mixture was boiled under nitrogen and at reflux for 90 h. The mixture was subsequently evaporated and the residue was partitioned between methylene chloride and water at pH=9; the organic phase was then evaporated after having been dried. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, eluent THF/methanol/ammonia 85/13/2. 11.6 g (62%) of product were isolated.
