Reaction Steps

A solution of N-(morpholinocarbonylphenyl)-8-amino-5-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-carboxamide (280 mg, 0.69 mmol), bis(2-chloroethyl)methyl amine hydrochloride (190 mg, 1.0 mmol) and sodium hydrogen carbonate (84 mg, 1.0 mmol) in n-butanol (20 mL) was heated at 90° C. for 5 h. After cooling, 2 M ammonium hydroxide (10 mL) was added and the mixture was heated at 50° C. for 1 h. The organic phase was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was purified by flash chromatography on a 5 silica gel column using chloroform/ethanol/conc. ammonium hydroxide (90:10:0.5) as eluent to yield 60 mg (18%) of the title compound: EIMS (70 eV) m/z (relative intensity) 492 (50, M+).
