Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-methyl-4′-trifluoromethyl-biphenyl-2-carboxylic acid (4-piperazin-1-yl-phenyl)-amide (329 mg) in 1,2-dichloroethane (20 mL) was added 1H-pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde (86 mg) and acetic acid (54 mg). The solution was cooled at 0° C. and sodium triacetoxy borohydride (238 mg) was added portionwise and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours. The solution was then washed with a saturated solution of NaHCO3, with brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by flash chromatography eluting with CH2Cl2/MeOH (95/5) and the oily residue obtained was crystallized from diisopropyl ether to give the title compound (210 mg) as white crystals.
