Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of cis-2,3,3a,4,9,9a-hexahydro-1H-benz[f]isoindole (32 mg, 0.018 mmol), N-(3-bromopropyl)phthalimide (49 mg, 0.18 mmol), potassium iodide (31 mg, 0.18 mmol), and potassium carbonate (51 mg, 0.37 mmol) in 3 mL of methylethyl ketone was heated at reflux for 8 hours. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, the solids were filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated in-vacuo. The residue was dry-loaded onto a 1×5 cm silica column, and eluted with ethyl acetate followed by 20% methanol/chloroform. Obtained 50 mg of white solids. Yield=78%. NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.84-7.79 (m, 2H), 7.71-7.66 (m, 2H), 7.14-7.06 (m, 4H), 3.74 (t, 2H, J=7 Hz), 2.95-2.90 (m, 2H), 2.74-2.68 (m, 2H), 2.55-2.35 (m, 6H), 1.91-1.80 (m, 4H).
