Phenylacetaldehyde → HCID 21904393, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Phenylacetaldehyde (0.87 mL, 7.40 mmol) was added to a solution of (8-benzyloxycarbonyl-1,4-dioxa-8-aza-spiro[4.5]-decane-6-ylmethyl)-N-phenylpropionamide (96) in MeOH (49.4 mL, 0.03M) in a hydrogenation flask. 20% Pd/C (0.53 g) was added, and the mixture was shaken under 40 psi H2 until the consumption of H2 ceased and the reaction was judged complete by TLC (3.5 h). The crude reaction mixture was passed through a column of Celite, concentrated in vacuo, arid purified by flash column chromatography (60:38:2::Hexanes:CH2Cl2:2N NH3 in EtOH) to obtain pure (8-phenethyl-1,4-dioxa-8-aza-spiro[4. 5]-decane-6-ylmethyl)-N-phenylpropionamide (97) (0.59 g, 92%). 1H NMR (CDCl3): 7.42-7.12 (10H, m), 4.08 (1H, dd, J=13.4, 9.5 Hz), 3.96-3.77 (4H, m), 3.65 (1H, broad d, J=10.9 Hz), 2.92-2.80 (1H, m), 2.80-2.64 (3H, m), 2.64-2.51 (2H, m), 2.33 (2H, broad t, J=10.3 Hz) 2.20-1.94 (3H, m), 1.72 (1H, dt, J=13.3, 13.2, 3.7 Hz), 1.58 (1H, ddd, J=13.1, 10.9, 4.3 Hz), 1.03 (3H, t, J=7.4 Hz) ppm. LRMS: 408.86.
