Potassium Carbonate → (R)-N-[1-(4-Pyrrolidinophenethyl)pyrrolidin-3-yl]-2-(2-bromobenzyloxy)aniline

Participants

Reaction Steps

(S)-3-Methanesulfonyloxy-1-(4-pyrrolidinophenethyl)pyrrolidine (0.30 g, 0.89 mmol) was added to 2-(2-bromobenzyloxy)aniline (1.15 g, 4.13 mmol) in argon stream. The obtained mixture was dissolved in acetonitrile (50 ml). Potassium carbonate (1.62 g, 11.7 mmol) was added to the obtained solution, and they were refluxed for 85 hours. Acetonitrile (15 ml) was added to the reaction mixture, and they were refluxed for additional 48 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite to obtain the filtrate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound in the form of a brown oily mixture (1.40 g).
