The addition and reaction are complete in 40 minutes. THF is then stripped under vacuum; residual aqueous layer is extracted with 2 L MTBE (to remove remaining (2,4-dichloro-thiazol-5-yl)-methanol). Neutralized by addition of NaOH (30%, 200 ml) and extracted twice with MTBE (1.5 L). Combined organic layers are washed with brine (3 L) then clarified (to remove insoluble). The organic layer is then concentrated under vacuum to afford 220 g of N-(2-methylpropyl)-N-[(2,4-dichloro-1,3-thiazol-5-yl)methyl]piperidin-4-amine as a pink powder. Yield 95% (HPLC=99% area). Mass spectrum (ion spray): m/z=322 (M+1); 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ=3.73 (2H, s), 3.17 (2H, m), 2.56 (3H, m). 2.31 (2H, d), 2.17 (1H, s, NH), 1.76 (2H, m), 1.68 (1H, m), 1.46 (2H, m), 0.92 (6H, d); 13C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ=20.6, 27.09, 28.88, 46.39, 47.20, 58.10, 58.52, 131.88, 137.30, 150.13.
