TERTIARY AND SECONDARY AMINES AS ALPHA-2 ANTAGONISTS AND SEROTONIN UPTAKE INHIBITORS

Technical Field

The present invention relates to novel organic compounds and compositions which are both alpha-2 adrenoreceptor antagonists and serotonin (5- hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) uptake inhibitors, processes for making such compounds, synthetic intermediates employed in these processes, and a method for treating diseases of the central nervous system including depression, aggression, obsessive compulsive disorders, panic attacks, memory disturbances, anxiety, hypochondriasis, and aspects of Alzheimer's disease, diseases of the vascular system including hypertension, glaucoma and migraine, metabolic disorders such as diabetes or feeding disorders, and alcoholism.

Background of the Invention There is evidence that the pathophysiology of depression and anxiety disorders is related to some type of serotonin dysfunction. The tricyclic antidepressant imipramine binds with high affinity to a recognition site associated with the transport of 5-HT. The site at which these tricyclic antidepressants bind is not identical to the 5-HT binding site and yet binding of compounds of this type inhibits the uptake of 5-HT (serotonin); an allosteric relationship is postulated (Charney, D.S., Krystal, J.H., Delgado, P.L., Heninger, G.R., Annu. Rev. Med. 1990, 41: 437). A number of compounds which demonstrate highly selective serotonin uptake inhibition have shown clinical efficacy as antidepressants (Fuller, R.W., Wong, D.T., Ann. N.Y. Acad. Set, 1990, 600: 68). It has been found that serotonin uptake inhibitors bind with less affinity to neurotransmitter receptors than the tricyclic antidepressants; this lower binding affinity is thought to be responsible for fewer chlorinergic and histaminergic side effects for these uptake, inhibitors (Robertson, D.W., Fuller, R.W., Ann. Rep. Med. Chem., 1991, 26: 23) relative to the tricyclic antidepressants.

Serotonin uptake inhibitors are thought to offer clinical advantages over the tricyclic antidepressants because they exhibit fewer severe adverse drug reactions, particularly as far as cardiovascular side effects and overdose potential. Serotonin uptake inhibitors have shown some indications of efficacy in the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder (Zak, J., Miller, J., Sheehan, D., Fanous, B., J.

Clin. Psychiatry, 1990, 49: 23), panic disorders (Baton, R., Pohl, R.I., Yergani, V., Rainey, J., Oxenkrug, G., Acta. Psychiatr. Scand., 1987, 75: 315), alchoholism (Gill, K., Amit, Z., Koe, K-, Alcohol, 1988, 349), and feeding disorders (Wong, D., Fuller, R., Int. J. Obesity, 1987, 11: 125). Some of the emotional aspects of Alzheimer's disease were ameliorated by the use of a serotonin uptake inhibitor (Karlsson, L, Clinical Neuropharmacol, 1990, 13 (Suppl2): 99). There is some indication that the serotonin uptake inhibitor Fluoxetine is effective in the treatment of hypochondriasis (Viswanathan, R., Paradis, C, Am. J. Psychiatr., 1991, 148: 1090). The adrenergic nervous system plays a major role in the innervation of heart, blood vessel and smooth muscle tissue. Compounds capable of interacting with receptor sites within the adrenergic nervous system can initiate a variety of physiological responses, including vasoconstriction, vasodilation, and increased or decreased heart rate (chronotropic), contractility (inotropic) andmetabolic activity. In the past, various adrenergic compounds have been employed to affect these and other physiological responses. However, many adrenergic compounds do not possess significant selectivity to enable desirable interactions with adrenergic receptor sites. That is, these adrenergic compounds do not demonstrate a high degree of specificity for differing receptors types within the adrenergic nervous system in order to obtain a desired physiological response separate from other possible, and perhaps less desirable, responses of the system.

The fact that adrenergic and serotonergic nerve terminals exist in close proximity in various brain regions might indicate some kind of functional interaction between these two neurotra-ismitter systems. There is evidence that presynaptic alpha-2 adrenergic receptors are located on 5-HT nerve terminals where they function to inhibit the release of 5-HT (Gothert, M., Huth, H., Naunyn- Schmiedeberg's Arch. Pharmacol., 1980, 313: 21 and Gothert, M., Huth, H., Schlicker, E., Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Arch. Pharmacol, 1981, 317: 199). It has been demonstrated in in vitro slice preparations that alpha-2 antagonists are capable of reversing the inhibition of 5-HT release upon electrical stimulation under quasi physiological conditions by either exogenously applied alpha-2 agonists or endogenous norepinephrine (NE) (Charney, D.S., Krystal, J.H., Delgado, P.L. Heninger, G.R., Annu. Rev. Med. 1990, 41: 437). One might therefore conclude that an agent which combines alpha-2 antagonist activity with 5-HT uptake inhibitory activity would be more effective than either activity alone in increasing the biophase concentration of 5-HT- Compounds such as napamezole, Win 51181-2,

which is a potent and selective alpha-2 adrenergic receptor antagonist and also inhibits serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) uptake, is under development by Sterling Drug as an antidepressant (Pharma Projects, May 1991, 12). Chronic uptake blockade will, over time, result in down-regulation of the alpha-2 receptor, and perhaps the delay in onset of antidepressant efficacy correlates with the time required for receptor down-regulation. l-Aminomethyl-l,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalenes have been described by J.F. DeBernardis, R.E. Zelle and F.Z. Basha in International Patent Application Number WO 89/06645. One of their generic structures encompasses methylenedioxy and ethylenedioxy heterocyclic compounds which are excluded from the present invention. Their compounds do not possess the selective alpha-2 antagonist activity with the inhibition of serotonin uptake profile of the present compounds.

Summary of the Invention ,_ . The compounds of the present invention demonstrate the ability to selectively inhibit serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) uptake and alpha-2 adrenergic receptors, i.e. are alpha-2 antagonists, which are mainly distributed on the membranes of central and peripheral adrenergic neurons and on the tissues innervated thereby. By inhibiting interaction with the alpha-adrenergic receptors in the peripheral nervous system, one can modulate the function of adrenergic neurons and hemodynamic equilibrium which is therapeutically useful in a multitude of cardiovascular indications, such as hypertension, congestive heart failure, and a variety of vascular spastic conditions. Furthermore, the alpha-adrenergic antagonists are useful in certain neurological and psychiatric disorders such as depression. Dual pharmacophores which are alpha-2 antagonists and also inhibit the uptake of serotonin would be anticipated to have a beneficial synergistic effect with enhanced efficacy over each type of activity alone, the potential for faster onset of action and/or efficacy among non-responding patients while perhaps having a desirable side effect profile.

As used throughout this specification and the appended claims, the following terms have the meanings ascribed to them:

The term "lower alkyl" as used herein refers to straight or branched chain saturated hydrocarbon radicals having from one to six carbon atoms. Representative examples of lower alkyl groups include methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, wo-propyl, n- butyl, -fee-butyl, wo-butyl, tert-butyl, and the like.

The term "lower alkoxy" as used herein refers to a lower alkyl group, as defined herein, which is bonded to the parent molecular moiety through an oxygen atom. Representative examples of lower alkoxy groups include methoxy, ethoxy, tert-butoxy, and the like.

The term "thioalkyloxy" as used herein refers to a lower alkyl group, as defined herein, which is bonded to the parent molecular moiety through a sulfur atom. Representative examples of thioalkyloxy groups include methylthio, ethylthio, isopropylthio, and the like.

The term "alkylamino" as used herein refers to one or two lower alkyl groups, as defined herein, which are bonded to the parent molecular moiety through a nitrogen atom. Representative examples of alkylamino groups include methylamino, dmelhylamino, ethylamino, diethylamino, isopropylamino, and the like.

The term "alkylsulfonyl" as used herein refers to a lower alkyl group bonded to the parent molecular moiety through a sulfonyl (-SO2-) group. Representative examples of alkylsulfonyl groups include methanesulf onyl, ethanesulfonyl, isopropylsulfonyl, and the like. The term "alkylsulfonylamino" as used herein refers to a lower alkyl group bonded to the parent molecular moiety through a sulf onylamino (-SO2NR-) group in which R can be hydrogen or lower alkyl. Representative examples of alkylsulfonylamino groups include methanesulfonamido, ethanesulfonamido, N- methyl-methanesulfonamido, and the like. The term "halo" or "halogen" as used herein means fluorine, iodine, bromine, or chlorine.

The term "methylenedioxy" or "ethylenedioxy" as used herein refers to either amethylene group, -CH2-, or an ethylene group, -CH2CH2-, attached to the parent molecular moiety through oxygen atoms to form either five or six membered rings. The term "substituted phenyl" as used herein refers to a phenyl ring with one, two, or three substituents independently selected from lower alkyl, halo, hydroxy, lower alkoxy, amino, and .thioalkyloxy.

The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refers to the pharmaceutically acceptable, relatively nontoxic, inorganic or organic acid addition salts of the compounds of the present invention. These salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds, or by separately reacting the free base with a suitable organic or inorganic acid.

The standard chirality descriptors "R" and "S" are used to indicate an isomerically pure center, "RS" to indicate a mixture, and "R/S" to indicate a single pure isomer of undetermined configuration. The assignment of "R" and "S" depends on the priority ranking of atoms or groups attached to the asymmetric center

as determined by the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog Sequence Rule (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, "Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry, Sections, A, B, C, D, E, F, and H", Pergamon Press, Oxford, 1979; Cahn, R.S., Ingold, C.K., Prelog, V., Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. Engl. 1966, 5: 385; and Prelog, V., Helmchen, G., Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. Engl. 1982, 21: 567).

Biological Assay Methods The compounds were assessed for alpha-adrenergic receptor subtype selectivity by use of radioligand binding techniques as described previously (DeBemardis et al, J. Med. Chem., 1985, 28: 1398). Affinity for the alpha-1 receptor was assessed using rat liver homogenates and the radioligand [ ³ H]- prazosin; whereas for the alpha-2 receptor, rat cerebral cortices and the radioligand [3H]-rauwolscine were utilized. Results obtained from the binding studies are shown in Table 1 for a representative sample of compounds disclosed herein, showing clearly the excellent affinity for the alpha-2 receptor, as well as the high degree of selectivity relative to the alpha- 1 adrenorecptor.

The primary method of evaluation of biogenic amine uptake activity has been the in vitro determination of the inhibition of radioactive amine uptake by synaptosome preparations of brain tissue. Basic procedures used are those described by Snyder and Coyle (Snyder, S.H. and J.T. Coyle, Regional Differences in ³ H-Norepinephrine and ³ H-Dopamine Uptake into Rat Brain Homogenates, Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics 1969, 165: 78-86) and Wong et al. (Wong, D.T., J-S. Homg and R.W. Fuller, Kinetics of Serotonin Accumulation into Synaptosomes of Rat Brain-Effects of Amphetamine and Chloroamphetamines, Biochemical Pharmacology 1973, 22: 311-322). Briefly, male Sprague-Dawley rats were decapitated and regions of their brains dissected according to the procedures of Glowinski and Iversen (Glowinski, J. and L.L. Iversen, Regional Studies of Catecholamines in the Rat Brain~I: The Disposition of [ ³ H]-Norepinephrine, [ ³ H]-Dopamine and [ ³ H]-DOPA in Various Regions of the Brain, Journal ofNeurochemistry 1966, 13: 655-669).

Hypothalamus (norepinephrine-), cortex (serotonin-) and striatum (dopamine- uptake) were homogenized in 10, 5, and 20 volumes, respectively, of 0.32 M sucrose using a Teflon/glass Potter-Elvehjem tissue grinder. Samples were centrifuged at 1000 x G for 10 minutes and the supernatants harvested and used in the assay. Aliquots of tissue (100 μL) were added to 750 μL of Kreb's solution (composition in mM; sodium chloride 118, potassium chloride 4.0, calcium chloride

1.13, potassium dihydrogen phosphate 1.12, magnesium sulfate 1.20, sodium bicarbonate 2.4, D-glucose 5.0, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid 1.5, ascorbic acid 1.0, and Pargyline, 12.5 μM, pH = 7.4, aerated with 95% oxygen, 5% carbon dioxide), 50 μL of test compound diluted in 0.3 mM ascorbic acid, and 100 μL [ ³ Hj-amine, final concentration approximately 100 nM. Tissues were incubated for 4 minutes at 37 °C, followed by rapid vacuum filtration over Whatman GF B filters and washed with 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH = 7.4). Nonspecific uptake was estimated in duplicate samples incubated at 0 °C. Data were analyzed as described previously (J.F. DeBemardis, DJ. Kerkman, D.L. Arendsen, S.A. Buckner, J. J. Kyncl, and A. A. Hancock, Conformationally Defined Adrenergic Agents.5. Resolution, Absolute Configuration, and Pharmacological Characterization of the Enantiomers of 2-[5,6-Dihydroxy-l,2,3,4-tetrahydro-l- naphthyljimidazoline: A Potent Agonist at α-Adrenoceptors, Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 1987, 30: 1011-1017).

The compounds of the invention can be administered in any effective pharmaceutically acceptable form to warm blooded animals, e.g., in oral, parenteral or infusable dosage forms, or as a buccal or nasal spray. Suitable routes of administration include, for example, intramuscular, intravenous, intraperitoneal or subcutaneous administration of the compounds.

In addition to the active compounds, compositions according to this invention for parenteral injection may comprise pharmaceutically acceptable sterile aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, suspensions or emulsions. Examples of suitable nonaqueous carriers, diluents, solvents or vehicles include propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, vegetable oils, such as olive oil, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Such compositions may also contain adjuvants such as

preserving, wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing agents. They may be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bateria-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents into the compositions. They can also be manufactured in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved in sterile water, or other sterile injectable medium, immediately before use.

Solid dosage forms for oral admistration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose, lactose, or starch. Such dosage forms may also comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, e.g., lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate. In the case of capsules, tablets, and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. Tablets and pills can additionally be prepared with enteric coatings. Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs containing inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water. Besides such inert diluents, compositions may also comprise adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, and sweetening, flavoring and perfuming agents.

Actual dosage levels of active ingredient in the compositions of the invention may be varied so as to obtain an amount of active ingredient effective to obtain a . desired therapeutic response for a particular composition and method of administration. The selected dosage level therefore depends upon the activity of the particular compound, the desired therapuetic effect, the route of administration, the desired duration of treatment, the severity of the condition being treated, the condition and prior medical history of the patient being treated and other factors. However, it is within the skill of the art to start doses of the compound at levels lower than required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and to gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved.

Generally, dosage levels of about 0.1 to 200 mg, more preferably about 0.5 to 150 mg and most preferably about 1 to 125 mg of active ingredient per kg of body weight per day are administered orally to a mammalian patient suffering from depression. If desired, the daily dose may be divided into multiple doses for administration, e.g., two to four separate doses per day.

Synthesis of the Compounds of the Invention In general, the compounds of the present invention can be prepared as illustrated in Scheme 1. For illustration purposes a 5-membered ring heterocycle is

used; the analogous reactions can be carried out on 6-membered ring heterocycles as well. According to this reaction scheme, the appropriate heterocyclic acetic acid 1 is reacted with oxalyl chloride or other appropriate chlorinating agent in methylene chloride containing dimethylformamide to give acid chloride 2. The appropriately substituted aminomethyl tetrahydronaphthalene 3, prepared by the procedure described in International Patent Application Number WO 89/06645, is reacted with the acid chloride using triethylamine in methylene chloride or other appropriate coupling conditions. The carboxamide 4 is reduced with diborane or other appropriate reducing agent and acidified to give the secondary amine salt 5. This salt can be reductively alkylated using formaldehyde and an appropriate reducing agent such as sodium borohydride or other alkylation procedures to give the tertiary amine 6.

Those heterocyclic acetic acids 1 which are not commercially available are obtained by synthesis. Some general methods for preparing these intermediates are shown in Scheme 2. One general method is described in Scheme 2A, where Z can be >O, >S, or >NH. Friedel Crafts acylation of 7 yields the acylated intermediate 8. Rearrangement of 8. to the phenylacetic acid side chain la can be effected by one of a variety of methods including Willgerodt-Kindler reaction or thallium-mediated oxidative rearrangement (Ref.: /. Am. Chem. Soc. 1971, 93, 4919). The acid fragment la can be further elaborated by the procedures described in Scheme 1.

Alternatively, the side chain acid portion may be dehydrogenated to yield yet another heterocyclic fragment lb for coupling-and reduction to yield another final product

The corresponding 6-yl compounds can be prepared as described in Scheme 2B, where X can be >O or >S. Alkylation of commercially available 9 with bromoacetaldehyde diethyl acetal affords 10. Dehydrative cyclization of JO affords a heterocyclic intermediate lc which can either be further elaborated by the procedures described in Scheme 1 or be hydrogenated or otherwise reduced to yield yet another heterocyclic fragment Id for coupling and reduction.

Yet another heterocyclic substitution pattern is available by the method described in Scheme 2C. Allylic bis-halogenation of the commercially available 3,4- dimethyl inteimedate H, followed by displacement by an oxygen, sulfur, or nitrogen nucleophile yields either the cyclized inteimedate 13 (when X = RNH2 or NH ₃ ), or a bis-substituted intermedate which can subsequently be cyclized (when X = >O, >S). The benzoic acid fragment 13 is readily elaborated via standard methods to the acetic acid side chain fragment le.

In cases where a methyl substituted heterocyclic fragment 14 is more readily accessible, elaboration is possible as shown in Scheme 2D. Allylic halogenation to give 15, followed by cyanide ion displacement to give 16 and then hydrolysis produces the desired heterocycle If. Variously substituted quinoline containing side chains are prepared by standard literature methods; reaction of the appropriately substituted aniline derivative 17 with glycerol under acidic conditions gives lg as shown in Scheme 2E. Catalytic hydrogenation of lg affords the tetrahydroquinoline.

Approaches to the preparation of other six-membered nitrogen containing heterocycles are shown in Scheme 2F. Condensation of the appropriately substituted 1,2-dianiline 18 with 2,3-dihydroxy-l,4-dioxane yields the desired heterocycle lh.

Appropriately substitued anilines 19 can serve as starting materials for the preparation of variously substituted benzothiazole derivatives as shown in Scheme 2G. Reaction of the aniline 19 with ammonium thiocyanate and bromine yields the 2-amino-benzothiazole 20, which can then be converted into a variety of 2- substituted benzothiazoles li (X = Cl, Br, CN, I, H, etc.).

In certain cases functional groups present on the heterocyclic portion of the molecule are incompatible with amine to acid coupling and/or amide reduction reaction conditions. An alternative approach for certain of these cases is shown in Scheme 2H. The requisite alkyl halides 23 (X = >0 or >NH) are prepared via Friedel-Crafts acylation of 21 with chloroacetyl chloride to give chloroketone 22, followed by triethyl silane reduction. The further elaboration of compound 23 is shown in Scheme 3. Appropriately substituted hydroxy phenylacetic acid esters 24 can serve as starting materials for the preparation of variously substituted isoxazoles, coumarins, dihydrocoumarins, and chromanones, as outlined in Scheme 21. Formylation of the phenol by any of a variety of reagents (for example, hexamethylenetetramine and TFA, POCI3 and DMF, Zn(CN)2» etc.) provides a useful intermediate 25 for conversion into isoxazoles 26 using hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid and coumarins 27 using malonic acid condensation. The coumarin may be reduced using catalytic hydrogenation with a palladium catalyst to give the dihydro coumarin 28. Alternatively, the phenol 24 can be reacted with 3-bromopropanoic acid to give 29 and subsequently cyclized under acid catalysis to yield various 4-chromanones 30. The esters 26, 27, 28, and 30 can be hydrolyzed to give the carboxylic acids L

In yet another modification, appropriately substituted hydroxy phenylacetic acid esters 24 can serve as starting materials for the preparation of additional oxygen containing five membered ring heterocycles. Scheme 2J outlines the preparation of various benzofuranaones. The appropriate phenol 24 can be treated with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of a Lewis acid to give the chloroacetyl derivative 31 followed by intramolecular cyclization in the presence of base to yield various benzofuran-3-ones 32. Alternatively, the phenol can be esterified with chloroacetic anhydride to give the chloroacetoxy derivative 33 followed by intramolecular Friedel Crafts alkylation to yield variously substituted benzofuran-2- ones 34. Esters 32 and ^4 can be hydrolyzed to give the carboxylic acids 1.

Alternatively, appropriately substituted hydroxy phenylacetic acid esters 24 can serve as starting materials for the preparation of substituted oxathioles, as outlined in Scheme 2K. Reaction of 24 with thiocyanogen choride followed by base promoted cyclization yields the oxathiolone 35. which can also be converted to the oxathiole 36 via aqueous hydrochloric acid hydrolysis followed by treatment with dibromomethane in the presence of base. Esters 35 and 36 can be hydrolyzed to give the carboxylic acids L

Scheme 2L illustrates the preparation of variously substituted isoquinolines and tetrahydroisoquinolines. Isoquinolines 38 can be prepared by a variety of standard methods (such as Pomeranz-Fritsch reaction or various newer modifications, i.e. Hendrickson and Rodriqwuez, /. Org. Chem., 48, 3344 (1983)) from the methyl benzaldehyde 37. The methyl substituted isoquinoline 38 can be oxidized to the carboxylic acid 39, and then homologated via Arndt-Eistert synthesis to the desired isoquinoline-acetic acid Jj. These isoquinolines can be further elaborated to give tetahydroisoquinolines Ik by catalytic hydrogenation.

Scheme 2M illustrates the preparation of variously substituted quinazolines 11. These compounds can be prepared from appropriately substituted anthranilic acids 40. Condensation with formamide yields the hydroxyquinazoline 41, which can then converted to the cMoroqu azoline 42 using phosphorous oxychloride, which then is dechlorinated under a variety of conditions, including hydrogenolysis, to give 43. Further elaboration under standard conditions, for example, Arndt- Eistert reaction, yields the acetic acid side chain derivative H.

The known 5-nitro-isoindol-l,3-dione 44a (X = CO) and 5-nitrosaccharin 44b (X = SO ₂ ) serve as starting materials for the preparation of various substituted phthalimide and saccharin side chains (Scheme 2N). Hydrogenation to give the amine, followed by diazotization and treatment with CuCN yields the desired cyano

derivative 45. Hydrolysis affords the carboxylic acid 46 and then Arndt-Eistert homologation yields the desired phthalimido- and saccharin-acetic acid derivates 1m. These derivatives can then be alkylated to yield various 2-alkyl phthalimide and saccharin derivatives In. The heterocycUc chloroethyl side chain 23, described in Scheme 2H, is attached to the amine portion of the molecule 3 via an alkylation reaction as shown in Scheme 3, as opposed to the acetylation reaction shown in Scheme 1. Alkylation of the secondary amine 5 affords the tertiary amine 6b.

When the desired heterocyclic ring is not stable to the conditions required for coupling to the amine portion of the final product and/or reduction of the resultant carboxamide, it is expedient to synthesize the appended heterocyclic ring as the last step in the preparation of said compounds. Scheme 4 illustrates a generalized method, where X can be >O or >NH. The appropriately substituted nitro phenyl acetic acid 47 is coupled the N-alkylated amine portion of the molecule to give amide 48. Reduction of the carbonyl and nitro groups using catalytic hydrogenation followed by diborane reduction affords compound 49. Reaction of the amino- phenol (X = >O) or diamine (X = >NH) with various carboxylic acid ortho esters (such as triethyl orthoformate or triethyl orthoacetate) yields the desired benzoxazole (X = >0) or benzimidazole (X = >NH) final products 6c. The preparation of the R-diastereomer of the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene is shown in Scheme 5. The commercially available 5-methoxy tetralone 50 is reacted with diethylcyanophosphonate (DECNP) in the presence of catalytic amounts of lithium cyanide. The intermediate addition product is treated with/?- toluenesulfonic acid in toluene and then reduced with sodium borohydride in ethanol. Hydrolysis with potassium hydroxide in ethylene glycol gives the racemic carboxylic acid 5L Treatment of 51 with oxalyl chloride followed by dimethylethylamine affords the intermediate ketene 52 which when reacted with (R)- (-)-pantolactone in toluene at -70 °C affords the chiral ester 53. Reduction of 53 with lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran affords the (R)-alcohol 54. Treatment of 54 with methanesulfonyl chloride affords the methanesulf onate 55. Treatment with sodium azide in dimethylformamide affords azide 56. Reduction of the azide with lithium aluminum hydride affords the (R)-primary amine 57. Reductive alkylation using ethyl formate followed by borane reduction affords the (R)-N-methyl compound 58.

To the reaction mixture was added 66 g of aluminum chloride over 15 minutes, and the reaction was then allowed to warm to 25 °C. After 18 hours, the reaction was quenched by pouring onto ice and the product isolated by extraction. The intermediate keto-ester was hydrogenated over a palladium catalyst in ethanol (200 mL) containing concentrated hydrochloric acid (10 mL) until the theoretical amount of hydrogen was consumed. After the catalyst was removed by filtration and the filtrate concentrated under reduced pressure, the intermediate ester was treated with aqueous potassium hydroxide solution (200 mL). Upon acidification, the intermediate acid was obtained. The acid was converted to its acid chloride by treatment with oxalyl chloride (17 mL) in methylene chloride catalyzed by 5 drops of dimethylformamide. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the acid chloride was redissolved in methylene chloride. Aluminum chloride (90 g) was added, and the reaction was stirred at 25 °C. for 18 hours. The reaction was quenched by pouring onto ice and the product extracted with ethyl acetate.

The reaction was refluxed for 30 minutes and then quenched in 5% sodium bicarbonate solution. After extraction with ethyl acetate, the combined organic extracts were dried and concentrated under reduced pressure to yield 6.1 g.
