Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of trans-4-(6,7-dimethoxy-quinoxalin-2-ylamino)-cyclohexanol (303 mg, 1 mmol) in 10 mL of THF at −78° C. are added triphenylphosphine (524 mg, 2 mmol) and diethyl azodicarboxylate (1 mL). The mixture is stirred at −78° C. for one hour before addition of 4-nitrobenzoic acid (334 mg, 2 mmol). After being stirred at −78° C. for one hour, the mixture is continued to stir at ROOM TEMPERATURE for additional hour and then concentrated. The residue is chromatographed on silica gel (ether) to give 250 mg (87.7%) of cyclohex-3-enyl-(6,7-dimethoxyquinoxalin-2-yl)-amine.
