1-(2-Hydroxyethyl)piperazine → HCID 22272726, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Potassium carbonate (1.52 g, 11 mmol) was added to a solution of this amide (2.36 g, 10 mmol) and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine (1.30 g, 10 mmol) in acetonitrile (40 ml) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated and the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and a saturated sodium chloride solution successively and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and the residue obtained by evaporation of the solvent was purified by a silica gel column chromatography (75 g of silica gel; developing solvent, ammonia-saturated methanol:chloroform=1:20) to provide 2.39 g (yield 83%) of N-heptyl-2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazin-1-yl]acetamide as colorless oil.
