Reaction Steps

Treatment of (±)-1-[7-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl]methanamine (0.947 g, 3.73 mmol) with diisopropylethylamine (0.725 g, 5.60 mmol) and benzyl chloroformate (0.7647 g, 4.48 mmol) generally according to the procedure described for Intermediate 12 gave 1.26 g (87%) of (±)-benzyl[7-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl]methylcarbamate as a colorless oil Rf=0.56 (silica, ethyl acetate:hexanes 1:4); Anal. calcd. for C25H25NO3: C, 77.49; H, 6.50; N, 3.61. Found: C, 77.42H, 6.57; N, 3.62. Chiral HPLC separation of (±)-benzyl[7-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2,3-dihydro-1-benzofuran-2-yl]methylcarbamate (Chiralcel OJ, methanol:carbon dioxide 4:6) provided two fractions. Fraction 1 (Rt=2.89 min, Chiralcel OJ, methanol:carbon dioxide 4:6); Fraction 2 (Rt=3.84 min, Chiralcel OJ, methanol:carbon dioxide 4:6).
