Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of organic chemistry and relates to a novel and effective synthetic method for preparing 3-(2-hydroxyl-5-methylphenyl)-N,N-diisopropyl-3-phenylpropylamine, which is characterized in The key intermediate lies in the readily available 3-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-3-phenylpropanol. Background technique
[0002] Several synthetic methods for the preparation of 3-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-N,N-diisopropyl-3-phenylpropylamine have been disclosed. The prior art describes the preparation of racemic and enantiomerically pure products obtained either by resolution of the enantiomers in a final step or by chiral synthesis.
[0003] EP325571 discloses a multi-step process for the preparation of 3-(2-hydroxy-5-methylphenyl)-N,N-diisopropyl-3-phenylpropylamine from 4-(-methoxy -5-methylphenyl)-6-methyl-3,4-chromanone as the first intermediate. Opening of the lactone ring in an alkaline medium with simultaneous esterification of ...
