Procedure

7-(4-Benzyl-piperazin-1-yl)-benzofuran-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (1.0 g, 2.74 mmol) and DABAL-Me3 (0.56 g, 2.20 mmol) were mixed in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL). Dimethylamine (2M in THF) (2.2 mL, 4.39 mmol) was added and the mixture was heated by microwave irradiation to 120° C. for 15 min. Brine was added and the mixture was extracted with dichloromethane, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and the solvent removed by rotary evaporation. The product was purified by flash chromatography (SiO2; DCM/MeOH; gradient 0-2%) giving 7-(4-benzylpiperazin-1-yl)-N,N-dimethylbenzofuran-2-carboxamide (0.70 g, 1.93 mmol) in 70% yield.
