Triethylamine → [4-(6-Chloro-benzo[b]thiophene-2-sulfonyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-acetonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of piperazin-1-yl-acetonitrile (0.32 g, 2.3 mmol) and Et3N (350 mg, 3.4 mmol) is added 6-chloro-benzo[b]thiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride (615 mg, 2.3 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction is warmed to room temperature and stirred 4 h. The reaction is diluted with CH2Cl2, washed with 1 N HCl, NaHCO3 and dried over MgSO4. The solution is concentrated and the residue is triturated with PE, triturated with Et2O, and pumped to yield [4-(6-chloro-benzo[b]thiophene-2-sulfonyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-acetonitrile which can be used without further purification. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ7.89-7.84 (m, 3H), 7.48 (dd, 1H), 4.36 (s, 2H), 3.92 (s, 2H), 3.64-3.61 (m, 2H), 3.57-3.54 (m, 2H); MS (Ion Spray) 444 (M+H)+.
