Procedure
1,5-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1, 4-pentadien-3-one (20e, 0.40 g, 1.4 mmol) was dissolved in dimethyl formamide (10 ml). Methylamine (51, 0.75 ml, 8.7 mmol, 40% in water) was added and the mixture stirred for 24 hr at room temperature. The mixture was poured into water (50 ml) and stirred for 2 hr at room temperature. The resulting mixture was extracted into ethyl acetate, washed with saturated sodium chloride, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to afford a solid. The crude solid was chromatographed on silica gel with ethyl acetate/hexane to afford a solid that was recrystallized from ethanol to give 0.30 g (68%) of a white solid: mp 141-143° C. [expected mp 129-130° C.]; 1H NMR δ 1.77, (s, 3H), 2.45 (d, 2H, J=14.5 Hz), 2.78 (t, 2H, J=12.9 Hz), 3.33 (d, 2H, J=11.9 Hz), 3.79 (s, 6H), 6.88 (d, 4H, J=8.5 Hz), 7.32 (d, 4H, J=8.5 Hz); 13C NMR: δ 40.6, 50.9, 55.3, 69.5, 114.1, 128.0, 135.3, 158.9, 207.1.
