Methanol → HCID 67597753, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 150 mg of 2-[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethoxy]-1-(8-nitro-1 -naphthyl)ethanol oxalate, 150 mg of 5% palladium-carbon and 3 ml of methanol was subjected to hydrogenation at room temperature for 30 minutes under atmospheric pressure. After the completion of the reaction, the palladium-carbon was removed by filtration. The filtrate was subjected to distillation under reduced pressure to remove the solvent. The residue thus obtained was added to a mixture of 30 ml of ice water and 30 ml of chloroform. The mixture was adjusted to pH 11 with a 2N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. The organic layer was separated, washed with water and a saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution in this order, and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed by distillation under reduced pressure. The residue thus obtained was dissolved in 1 ml of ethanol. Thereto was added 0.2 ml of a 5.9N dry hydrogen chloride-ethanol solution. The resulting crystals were collected by filtration and dried to obtain 110 mg of 1-(8-amino-1-naphthyl)-2-[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethoxy]ethanol dihydrochloride (compound No. 290).
