Potassium Carbonate → HCID 21070994, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

2,4-dimethylimidazole (0.633 g, 0.7 mmol) was taken up in dry DMF (15 ml) and dry potassium carbonate (340 mg) and KI (20 mg) was added and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 h under nitrogen. 2-Chloro-1-[4-(4-chloro-phenyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-ethanone (200 mg, 1.1 mmol) in DMF (5 ml) was then added to the mixture through a syringe. The reaction was then heated at 140° C. for 14 h, cooled and quenched with water and extracted with ethyl acetate. Drying of the organic layer with Na2SO4 followed by concentration gave material that was purified on a silica gel column (CHCl3/MeOH): 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.25 (d, 2H), 6.80 (d, 2H), 6.53 (s, 1H), 4.62 (s, 2H), 3.78 (br, 2H), 3.59 (br, 2H), 3.21 (br, 4H), 2.31 (s, 3H), 2.17 (s, 1H).
