반응 단계

To a solution of [1,1′]bipiperidinyl-2,4-dione (520 mg, 2.65 mmol) from Example 1 step 4 in dry toluene (25 ml) at room temperature were added 1-(2,4-dichlorophenylamino)-propan-2-one (576 mg, 2.64 mmol) from Step 1 above followed by a catalytic amount of p-TSA. The reaction mixture was boiled under reflux with a Dean-Stark trap, and 10 ml toluene was collected in the trap. One molar equivalent of p-TSA (250 mg) was added and the reaction mixture was boiled under reflux for 5.5 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction mixture was evaporated and purified by flash chromatography (heptane:EtOAc gradient) to give 250 mg (25%) of the title compound as a brown solid. A parallel experiment with 1.51 g 1-(2,4-dichlorophenylamino)propan-2-one afforded 0.68 g (26%) of the product.
