Reaction Steps

To a solution of (±)-trans-2-hydroxy-3,3-dimethyl-1-[(2-phenylethyl)amino]-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrano[3,2-f]quinoline-8-carbonitrile (400 mg, 1.07 mmol) in t-butanol (40 mL), potassium hydroxide (800 mg, 14.3 mmol) was added at room temperature and the resulting mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 2 hour. Upon the completion of the reaction, sodium chloride aqueous solution was added to the reaction solution, and it was extracted with ethyl acetate and the resulting organic phase was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. After distilling off the solvent, the residue was purified by column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=1/1) and recrystallized with hexane-ethyl acetate to obtain the aimed product (yield: 54%).
