Diisopropylethylamine → 4-(1-(5-Formyl-2,4-dimethylbenzoyl)piperidin-4-yl)benzonitrile

To a stirred solution of 5-formyl-2,4-dimethylbenzoic acid (compound 16.3, 950 mg, 5.33 mmol, 1.10 equiv) in DMF (15 mL) was added DIEA (2.48 g, 19.19 mmol, 4.00 equiv) followed by HBTU (3.67 g, 9.68 mmol, 2.00 equiv), and 4-(piperidin-4-yl)benzonitrile hydrochloride (compound 1.5, 1.07 g, 4.80 mmol, 1.00 equiv). After stirring overnight at ambient temperature, the reaction was quenched by the addition of 60 mL of water. The resulting mixture was extracted with 3×150 mL of ethyl acetate and the organic layers were combined, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified using silica gel column chromatography with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:10-1:3) as eluent to yield 1.4 g (84%) of the title compound as a brown oil.
