The vial was capped and then evacuated and backfilled with Ar. Cis-2,6-dimethylpiperazine (0.605 g, 5.30 mmol) and DMF (4 mL) were then added. The resulting mixture was stirred at rt for 4 d. The mixture was diluted with EtOAc, filtered through a cake of Celite and the filtrate was concentrated to give the crude product. Crude product was purified by flash chromatography using MeOH/CH2Cl2 (2:98 to 15:85) to give the title compound as a red solid (567 mg, 59%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, MeOD) δ 7.33 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 6.89 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 2H), 3.63-3.60 (m, 2H), 3.18-3.07 (m, 2H), 2.40 (t, J=11.6 Hz, 2H), 1.23 (d, J=6.4 Hz, 6H); MS ESI 269.0 [M+H]+, calcd for [C12H17BrN2+H]+ 269.06.
