Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of N-(3-(3,4-dihydroisoquinolin-2(1H)-yl)-2-hydroxypropyl)-3-(pyrrolidin-3-yl)benzamide (200 mg, 0.53 mmol) in MeOH (4 ml) was added HCHO (31.9 mg, 1.05 mmol) and NaBH3CN (66.1 mg, 1.05 mmol) at 29° C. The mixture was then added AcOH (0.5 ml) at 29° C. and stirred for 16 h. The mixture was purified by prep-HPLC to give the title compound (29.6 mg, Yield 14.3%). 1H NMR (CD3OD, 400 MHz): δ 8.52 (brs, 2H), 7.88 (s, 1H), 7.78 (d, J=7.7 Hz, 1H), 7.53-7.60 (m, 1H), 7.43-7.52 (m, 1H), 7.22-7.33 (m, 3H), 7.15-7.21 (m, 1H), 4.36 (s, 3H), 3.78 (brs, 2H), 3.46-3.67 (m, 6H), 3.41 (brs, 1H), 3.07-3.19 (m, 3H), 3.01 (s, 3H), 2.50-2.64 (m, 1H), 2.19-2.34 (m, 1H). LCMS (m/z): 394.2 (M+1).
