Ethyl Acetate → 10-Benzyl-4-methyl-3,5,10-triaza-tricyclo[6.3.1.02,7]dodeca-2(7),3,5-triene

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-benzyl-7-dimethylaminomethylene-3-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octan-6-one (1.42 mmol) in ethanol was added potassium carbonate (3.8 mmol) and acetamidine hydrochloride (1.6 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated under reflux overnight. After cooling the solvents were removed and dichloromethane and aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution were added. The dichloromethane layer was separated and dried to and oil. Purification by flash chromatography on silica gel eluted with ethyl acetate yielded product (0.23 mmol). 1H NMR (CD3OD, 400 MHz) δ 8.25 (s, 1H), 7.18 (br s, 3H), 6.85 (br s, 2H), 3.60–3.40 (m, 2H), 3.10 (s, 1H), 3.00 (m, 2H), 2.79 (m, 1H), 2.70 (s, 3H), 2.5 (m, 1H), 2.45 (m, 1H), 2.25 (m, 1H), 1.70 (m, 1H); APCl MS m/z 266.2 (M+H)+.
