3-Fluorobenzyl bromide → [4-(3-Fluorobenzyl)morpholin-2-yl]methylamine

Temperature

20 °C

A mixture of Intermediate 19 (0.300 g) and N,N-diisopropylethylamine (0.372 ml) in N,N-dimethylformamide (5 ml) was treated with 3-fluorobenzyl bromide (0.295 g). The solution was stirred at 20° C. under nitrogen for 24 h. The mixture was partitioned between dichloromethane (10 ml) and saturated aqueous potassium carbonate (10 ml). The phases were separated and the organic phase applied to an ion exchange cartridge (10 g Isolute SCX, prewashed with methanol). The SCX cartridge was eluted with methanol (40 ml) followed by 10% 0.880 ammonia in methanol (40 ml) and the appropriate fractions were concentrated in vacuo. The residue was dissolved in methanol (2 ml) and treated with aqueous 2N sodium hydroxide (2 ml). The solution was stirred at 20° C. for 24 h. The mixture was partitioned between dichloromethane (15 ml) and water (20 ml). The aqueous extract was washed with dichloromethane (15 ml) and the combined organic extracts concentrated to give the title compound as a colourless gum (0.150 g).
