Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-oxo-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester (3.0 g, 12.8 mmol) and 4-bromomethyl tolylnitrile (2.76 g, 14.1 mmol) in 135 mL of THF and 15 mL of DMF at 0° C. is added a 60% dispersion in mineral oil of NaH (0.49 g, 12.8 mmol). After 5 hours, the solution is diluted with saturated NH4Cl and EtOAc. The organic layer is washed with H2O and saturated NaCl. The organic layer is dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product is purified by column chromatography over silcia gel eluting with 20% EtOAc/CH2Cl2. The title compound is obtained as a white solid (4.01 g, 11.4 mmol). 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz) δ7.62 (d, 2H), 7.39 (m, 7H), 5.14 (s, 2H), 4.68 (s, 2H), 4.27 (s, 2H), 3.73 (m, 2H), 3.30 (m, 2H).
