2-(2-(4-(2,3-Difluoro-4-ethoxyphenyl)cyclohexylidene)-ethyl)-1,3-dioxane → HCID 178466566, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

The 2-(2-(4-(2,3-difluoro-4-ethoxyphenyl)cyclohexylidene)-ethyl)-1,3-dioxane (36.9 mmol) obtained by the reaction of Step 3 was dissolved in 100 ml of a mixed solvent of toluene/ethanol (1/1), 4.0 g of 5-wt %-palladium/carbon catalyst was added, and the solution was stirred for 7 hours at room temperature under a hydrogen pressure of 1-2 kg/cm2. After the catalyst was filtered off, the solvent was distilled off from the filtrate under reduced pressure, the residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography (eluent: a mixed solvent of ethyl acetate/toluene=3/7), the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure, and the product was re-crystallized from ethanol to form 2-(2-(trans-4-(2,3-difluoro-4-ethoxyphenyl)-cyclohexyl)-ethyl)-1,3-dioxane (36.9 mmol).
