Reaction Steps

A solution of (4-bromobutyl)carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (3.75 g, 90%, 13.38 mmol) in acetone (10 mL) was added to a mixture of piperazine-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester 15 (2.68 g, 12.16 mmol), sodium iodide (1.82 g, 12.16 mmol), and potassium carbonate (5.04 g, 36.47 mmol) in acetone (100 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at reflux for 24 h. The mixture was concentrated in vacuo, the resulting residue was diluted with dichloromethane and insoluble inorganics were filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo and the resulting residue was purified by Biotage silica gel column chromatography using methanol/dichloromethane (gradient 0% to 5%) to give 4-(4-tert-butoxycarbonylaminobutyl)piperazine-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester (16) as a viscous, brown oil (3.26 g, 68%): 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.40 (s, 9H), 1.51 (m, 4H), 2.49 (m, 6H), 3.10 (m, 2H), 3.51 (m, 4H), 5.10 (s, 2H), 5.25 (br, 1H), 7.32 (m, 5H); ESI MS m/z 392 [C21H33N3O4+H]+.
