Synthesis of 2,N-dimethyl-N-(3,3-diphenylpropyl)-1-amino-2-propanol

Aim To investigate a method for the synthesis of 2,N -dimethyl- N -(3,3-diphenylpropyl)-1-amino-2-propanol( 1 ). Methods Alkylation of benzene with cinnamic acid via the Fridel-Crafts reaction gave 3,3- diphenylpropanoic acid,which was subsequently converted to the corresponding acid chloride,then reacted with dried methylamine to obtain N -methyl-3,3-diphenylpropanamide in dichloromethane.This amide was efficiently reduced with the NaBH_4-CH_3COOH/THF system,and the key intermediate N -methyl-3,3-diphenylpropanamine( 5 )was provided in 90% yield.Then 3-chloroisopropene was treated with 80% sulfuric acid followed by hydrolysis to give 1-chloro-2-methyl-2-propanol,which was effected with 7.5 mol/L NaOH using TEBA as a catalyst to provide another key intermediate isobutylene oxide( 7 ).Finally,5 reacted with 7 under refluxing for 12 h without adding a solvent to gain the target molecule in near quantity. Results and conclusion A cost-efficient facile synthetic route that is suitable for large-scale preparation of the target compound has been provided through a five-step procedure starting from cinnamic acid in a total yield of 62.7%,and the structure was verified by ESI-MS and 1H-NMR.
