(R)-(-)-Tetrahydrofurfurylamine → HCID 58612211, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Using the procedure of Example 1, (R)-(−)-tetrahydrofurfurylamine Compound 40a was used in place of piperidine to prepare (4-nitro-benzyl)-[(2R)-tetrahydro-furan-2-ylmethyl]-amine Compound 40b. 5% Rh/C (1.5 g) was added to a solution of Compound 40b (5.95 g, 25.2 mmol) in ethyl acetate (40 mL). The mixture was hydrogenated at 40 psi for a period of 2 hrs, then filtered through Celite. The filtrate was evaporated in vacuo to provide 4-({[(2R)-tetrahydro-furan-2-ylmethyl]-amino}-methyl)-phenylamine Compound 40c. MS 207 (MH+). Using the procedure of Example 1, Compound 40c was used in place of 4-piperidin-1-ylmethyl-phenylamine Compound 1k to provide Compound 17. MS 553, 555 (MH+).
