7-(t-Butyldimethylsilyloxy)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline 116 (200 mg,
0.76 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (0.8 mL). Compound 10 (641 mg,
1.5 mmol) dissolved in DMF (0.8 mL) and potassium carbonate (120
mg, 0.91 mmol) were added to the solution and the reaction was
heated to 70 °C and stirred for 24 h. The reaction was poured into
water and acidified to pH 1 with 1 M HCl. The product was extracted
with ethyl acetate and the combined organic phases were washed with
water and brine and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was
removed by rotary evaporation and the crude material was purified by
flash column chromatography (0−5% acetone/hexanes) to yield a
1,11-Bis-[3-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1-p-tolyl-ethoxysulfonyl)-propyl]-
3,4,8,9,10,11-hexahydro-2H-13-oxa-6,11-diaza-1-azonia-penta-
cene Tetrafluoroborate 16. Compound 13 (44 mg, 79 μmol) and
compound 15 (55 mg, 91 μmol) were dissolved in a solution of
ethanol/water/hydrochloric acid (500 μL:50 μL:25 μL) and heated to
80 °C with stirring for 2 h. Solvent was removed via rotary evaporation
to give a fluorescent blue residue. The crude material was purified by
flash column chromatography (0−10% methanol/dichloromethane)
yielding the tetrafluoroborate salt as a blue solid (36 mg, 47%). mp

yl]-propane-1-sulfonic acid 2,2,2-trifluoro-1-p-tolyl-ethyl Ester 15.
Compound 14 (105 mg, 0.23 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (2.3
mL). 4-Nitrobenzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate (54 mg, 0.23 mmol)
was suspended in 10% sulfuric acid (2.3 mL) with vigorous stirring.
The organic solution was added to the aqueous mixture and stirred at
ambient conditions for 1 h. The solution was then neutralized with
ammonium hydroxide, resulting in a deep red precipitate. The mixture
was filtered and the filtrand washed with water to give a blood red
solid (140 mg, quantitative). This compound was dried in vacuo and
used in the next reaction without further purification. NMR of the
crude material revealed a contaminant of ammonium tetrafluoroborate
salt. A small sample of the compound was therefore desalted by flash
column chromatography (0−50% ethyl acetate/hexanes) to obtain

were respectively aqueous 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid and acetonitrile/
0.1% trifluoroacetic acid. The flow rate during purification was 5 mL/
