[摘要]:1,2-Amino alcohols have been converted into morpholines by using sulfinamides as temporary protecting/activating groups on the amine. We have developed a procedure for the selective synthesis of monoprotected N-sulfinyl amino alcohols through a double sulfinylation/hydrolysis strategy. Following the reaction of the sulfinamides with bromoethyl-diphenylsulfonium triflate, protected morpholines were obtained in high yields. Subsequent treatment with HCl liberated the morpholine hydrochloride salts. The usefulness of this high yielding and efficient methodology has been demonstrated in the formal synthesis of the antidepressant drug (S,S)-reboxetine. |
