Reaction Steps

A solution of 1.36 g (5.0 mmol) 7-benzyl-2-methyl-2,7-diazaspiro[4.4]nonane-1,3,8-trione in 50 ml tetrahydrofuran was added dropwise to a suspension of 0.95 g (25 mmol) lithium aluminum hydride in 30 ml tetrahydrofuran. The mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature, refluxed one hour, cooled, and treated dropwise with 0.95 ml water, 0.95 ml 15% sodium hydroxide solution and 2.8 ml water. After removal of the inorganic solids by filtration, the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to give a syrup which was dissolved in isopropanol and treated with excess 6N hydrogen chloride in isopropanol. Crystallization afforded 0.97 g of the title compound, mp 233°-234° C.
