Reaction Steps

Reaction of 2-(2,2-dimethyl-5-oxo-[1,3]-dioxolan-4-ylidene)-N-methyl-N-(4-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-acetamide (0.36 g, 1.05 mmol) with the paraformaldehyde-N-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine adduct in methanol using a procedure similar to the one described in the preparation of compound 13 gave 0.16 g (35% yield) of the title compound as a solid after chromatography on reversed phase silica gel. 1HNMR 400 MHz (CDCl3) δ (ppm); 2.46 (4H, m, 2×NCH2), 2.57 (2H, t, J=6.1 Hz, NCH2), 3.04 (3H, s, NCH3), 3.6 (6H, m, 2×OCH2 and NCH2), 4.25 (2H, s, NCH2), 4.72 (2H, s, NCH2), 7.41 (2H, d, J=8.0 Hz, aromatics), 7.62 (2H, d, J=8.0 Hz, aromatics). HRMS (FAB+) calculated for C20H25F3N3O4: [M+H]+: 428.179716. found: 428.179157.
