Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl (4S)-6-isopropoxy-3,4-dihydro-2H-chromen-4-ylcarbamate (340 mg, 1.11 mmol) in methanol (2 mL) was added hydrochloric acid (2 mL, 4 N in 1,4-dioxane, 8 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with methylene chloride (50 mL) and water (50 mL). The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with methylene chloride (2×50 mL). The combined extracts were washed with saturated sodium chloride, dried (sodium sulfate), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to provide (4S)-6-isopropoxychroman-4-amine (240 mg, 99% crude yield): 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 6.96 (d, J=2.7 Hz, 1H), 6.90-6.86 (m, 1H), 6.80 (d, J=9.0 Hz, 1H), 4.55-4.46 (m, 2H), 4.24-4.17 (m, 2H), 2.40-2.31 (m, 1H), 2.18-2.08 (m, 1H), 1.28 (d, J=6.0 Hz, 6H). This material was used in the next step without further purification.
