Reaction Steps

To a solution of 1.45 mmol 4-(4-methyl-5-trifluoromethyl-thiazol-2-yl)-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester in 10 ml dioxane was added dropwise 21.8 mmol hydrogen chloride solution (4 M in dioxane) and the mixture was stirred at 90° C. for 2 h. The reaction mixture was then cooled to 0° C. and diluted with ether. The resulting crystals were collected by filtration and washed with ether to afford the title compound as a white crystalline solid (yield 68%). MS (m/e): 252.3 (M+H+, 100%).
