Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 2.9 parts of 6-[4-hydroxy-4-(3-methylphenyl)-1-piperidinyl]-3-pyridazinol, 30 parts of a hydrochloric acid solution 6N and 24 parts of ethanol was stirred for 2 hours at reflux temperature. The reaction mixture was evaporated. Crushed ice was added and the whole was treated with concentrate ammonium hydroxide. The product was extracted with trichloromethane. The extract was dried, filtered and evaporated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using a mixture of trichloromethane and methanol (98:2 by volume) as eluent. The pure fractions were collected and the eluent was evaporated. The residue was crystallized from a mixture of 2-propanol and 2,2'-oxybispropane. The product was filtered off and dried, yielding 2 parts (75%) of 6-[3,6-dihydro-4-(3-methylphenyl)-1(2H)pyridinyl]-3-pyridazinol; mp. 179.0° C. (compound 270).
