1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) methoxy)-N-propylnoraporphine (7f)
The procedure is same as that for preparation of aporlogues
7a–e.
A
mixture of alkyne 4 (32 mg, 0.10 mmol), CuI (4 mg,
0.02 mmol), and 1-azido-4-chlorobutane (16 mg, 0.12 mmol) in
THF (5 mL) was stirred for 5 min. N,N-Diisopropylethylamine (DI-
PEA, 0.09 mL, 0.5 mmol) was added slowly, and the mixture was
stirred at rt overnight. The reaction suspension was filtered and
then concentrated. The crude material was chromatographed to af-
ford cyclization product 8 (42 mg, 94%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3):

Compound 8 (27 mg, 0.06 mmol) and NaI (11 mg, 0.07 mmol)
were mixed in MeCN (10 mL) and the mixture was refluxed for
1 h. 1-(2-Methoxyphenyl)piperazine (14 mg, 0.07 mmol) and
K2CO3 (17 mg, 0.12 mmol) were added and the mixture was re-
fluxed overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated, diluted
with CH2Cl2 and water. After separation, the organic phase was
washed with brine and dried. The solvents were removed and
the residue was subjected to chromatography (CH2Cl2/
MeOH = 25:1, 1% NH4OH) to give final compound 15 as a colorless
oil (20 mg, 56%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): d 8.09 (d, 1H,

5.4. General procedure for preparation of alkynes 10a–d
An appropriate arylpiperazines (1.0 equiv), alkynyl tosylate
(1.0 equiv), K2CO3 (2.0 equiv) and sodium iodide (cat.) were dis-
solved in acetone. The resulting mixture was refluxed overnight.
The solvent was removed, and the crude material was dissolved
in CH2Cl2 and water. After filtration, the solvent was removed
and the residue was subjected to chromatography to give corre-
sponding alkynes 10a–d.
