Participants

Reaction Steps

80 mg of 5-fluoro-2-phenoxymethyl-6-piperazin-1-yl-1-(4-trifluoromethoxy-benzyl)-1H-benzoimidazole (0.16 mmol) and 0.033 ml TEA (0.24 mmol) were dissolved in 1.5 ml dichloromethane and treated with 0.018 ml propionyl chloride (0.2 mmol). After 2 h stirring at rt, the reaction mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, washed with water, saturated sodium bicarbonate and brine, dried with magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo, leading to 87 mg yellow solid (98%).
