Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of {2-[4-(4-fluoro-benzyl)-(2R,5S)-2,5-dimethyl-piperazin-1-yl]-2-oxo-ethyl}-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (1.45 g, 3.28 mmol) in dichloromethane (38 mL) was added trifluoroacetic acid (20 mL). The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for two hours. The reaction was diluted with dichloromethane and washed with 1N sodium hydroxide. The organic layer was separated, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to the give the title compound (1.03 g).
