Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (4.00 g, 21.5 mmol) in dry dichloroethane (70 mL) are added 3-chlorobenzaldehyde (2.49 mL, 3.08 g, 21.9 mmol), HOAc (2.58 mL, 2.71 g, 45.1 mmol) and NaBH(OAc)3 (5.46 g, 25.8 mmol) at ambient temperature. After stirring at ambient temperature for 3d, 2N NaOH (40 mL) is added, the layers are separated, and the aqueous layer is extracted with CH2Cl2 (4×50 mL). The combined organic extracts are washed with water (3×50 mL) and brine (80 mL) and dried over MgSO4. The crude material is purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with hexane:EtOAc mixtures, yielding 5.83 g (18.8 mmol, 87%) of the title compound as yellow oil. MS (ES): m/z 311.0/313.0 (50/18) [MH+]. tR (method A)=5.0 min.
