Triethylamine → Tert-butyl 4-(morpholine-4-carbonyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of tert-butyl 1-piperazinecarboxylate (2.50 g, 13.42 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (75 mL) cooled in an ice-water bath was added 4-morpholinecarbonyl chloride (1.57 mL, 13.42 mmol) followed by Et3N (3.74 mL, 26.84 mmol), and the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature. After 15 h, the reaction mixture was washed with 1.0 N HCl (50 mL), saturated NaHCO3 (75 mL), and brie (50 mL), dried, and concentrated to give the title compound (3.80 g, 95%) as a white solid. Mp: 171-173° C. 1H NMR: δ3.69 (t, J=4.9 Hz, 4H, CH2OCH2), 3.46-3.40 (m, 4H, CH2NCH2), 3.28 (t, J=4.9 Hz, 4H, CH2NCH2), 3.25-3.20 (m, 4H, CH2CH2), 1.47 (s, 9H, t-Bu). MS (DCI/CH4): m/z (rel itensity) 300 (MH+, 73), 272 (28), 244 (100), 200 (73). Anal. (C14H25N3O4): C, H, N.
