Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A solution of n-butyllithium in hexane (1.6 M, 38.2 mL, 61.1 mmol) was added to a solution of diisopropylamine (8.6 mL, 61.1 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (140 mL) at −78° C. under argon. After 1 h, a solution of 2-chloroquinoline (10.00 g, 61.1 mol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) was added via syringe. After 1 h, a solution of 1-benzyl-4-piperdinone (11.3 mL, 61.1 mmol) was added, and the reaction stirred for an additional 40 min at −78° C., then allowed to warn to room temperature. The reaction was cooled to −20° C. and quenched with water. The reaction solution was extracted with ethyl acetate, and the organic phase washed with saturated brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. Chromatographic purification (silica gel,0 to 10% {5% ammonium hydroxide/methanol} in methylene chloride gradient elution) gave the title compound, 11.3 g. MS 353 (M+1). 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.33 (s, 1H), 8.00 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 7.82 (d, J=8 Hz, 1H), 7.72 (dt, J=1,10 Hz, 1H), 7.57 (dt, J=1,8 Hz, 1H), 7.39–7.26 (m, 5H), 3.61 (s, 2H), 2.85 (d, J=11 Hz, 2H), 2.59 (t, J=12 Hz, 2H), 2.48 (dt, J=4,13 Hz, 2H), 2.13 (d, J=12 Hz, 2H).
