Piperidine → 5-methyl-3-[5-(piperidin-1-yl)methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl]-5,6-dihydro-4H-imidazo[1,5-a][1,4]benzodiazepin-6-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.15 g (3.5 mmol) of 3-(5-chloromethyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-5-methyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-imidazo[1,5-a][1,4]benzodiazepin-6-one were stirred at room temperature for 1 hour with 1 g (11.7 mmol) of piperidine and 10 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide. By evaporation of the reaction mixture and chromatography of the residue on silica gel while eluting with ethyl acetate/ethanol 9/1 there was obtained 0.98 g (74%) of 5-methyl-3-[5-(piperidin-1-yl)methyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl]-5,6-dihydro-4H-imidazo[1,5-a][1,4]benzodiazepin-6-one of m.p. 167°-168°, which was converted into the hydrochloride.
