Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-(4-chloro-2-nitrophenyl)ethanone (WO 9322287) (700 mg, 3.5 mmol) and cis-2,6-dimethylpiperazine (1.2 g, 10.5 mmol) in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (12 ml) was heated at 160° C. in a microwave reactor for 40 min. The reaction mixture was cooled, diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with water (×3), brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. The resulting 1:1 mixture of the title compound (D5) MS (ES+) m/e [M+H]+278 and 1-[4-chloro-2-(cis-3,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinyl)phenyl]ethanone MS (ES+) m/e [M+H]+267/269 was used crude in the next reaction.
