Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)-2,2-dimethyl-1-tetralone (4.0 g) in ethanol (40 ml) was added to 40% ethanol dimethylamine solution (20 ml), and the mixture left to stand overnight. The solvent was removed and the residue shaken with ether-dilute hydrochloric acid. The aqueous layer was separated, basified, extracted with ether, and the extract dried (MgSO4). Evaporation gave 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(2-hydroxy-3-dimethylaminopropoxy)-1-tetralone (3.2 g, 71%) as a gummy solid.
