Water → 3-Chloro-N-[1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-[1-(2-fluoroethyl)-piperidin-4-ylmethoxy]ethyl]-1H-indole-6-carboxamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-chloro-N-[1-(2-chlorophenyl)-2-(piperidin-4-ylmethoxy)ethyl]-1H-indole-6-carboxamide (600 mg, 1.3 mmol) in 6 mL of DMSO was added potassium carbonate (716 mg, 5.2 mmol) and 2-bromo-1-fluoroethane (0.10 mL, 1.1 mmol). The reaction was allowed to stir at room temperature overnight after which time water was added and the resulting precipitate was isolated by filtration. Purification of the filtrate (SiO2: EtOAc) provided 178 mg (28%) of the title compound.
