Water → Methyl 7-[4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl]-1-crotyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzazepine-4-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

In THF (6.0 ml) was dissolved methyl 7-[4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl]-2,3-dihydro-1-benzazepine-4-carboxylate (0.30 g). To the solution was added 60% sodium hydride (61 mg) under ice-cooling and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. To the mixture was added crotyl bromide (0.31 ml), and the mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 4 days. After cooled to room temperature, the reaction solution was added to water, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with saturated brine and dried with magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the resulting residue was purified with silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=4/1) to give methyl 7-[4-(2-butoxyethoxy)phenyl]-1-crotyl-2,3-dihydro-1-benzazepine-4-carboxylate (0.23 g).
