Sulfuric Acid → HCID 59455009, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sulfuric acid is added to a solution of 4-chloro-3-fluorophenyl hydrazine hydrochloride (1 equiv.) in dioxane, and stirred for 5 min. at RT. N-Methyl piperidone (0.76-1.4 equiv.) is added and the mixture is heated at 80° C. for 3 h. After completion, as monitored by TLC, the reaction mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure and basified to pH 10 using 10% aqueous KOH solution, extracted with EtOAc, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure using rotary evaporator to give a mixture or regioisomeric products. For this Example, silica gel chromatography separates the title compound from the other regioisomer (Compound 6) obtained in Example 11.
