O-(Benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate → 5-Fluoro-1-methyl-3-[(4-{4-[3-(2-methylpiperidin-1-yl)propoxy]phenyl}piperazin-1-yl)carbonyl]-1H-indole

Reaction Steps

A solution of 5-fluoro-1-methyl-1H-indole-3-carboxylic acid (19.3 mg) and O-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethyluronium tetrafluoroborate (TBTU) (56 mg) in DMF (1 ml) and diisopropylethylamine (0.035 ml) was stirred for 10 min before 1-{4-[3-(2-methylpiperidin-1-yl)propoxy]phenyl}piperazine (E76b) (21.3 mg) in DMF (0.5 ml) was added. The mixture was stirred for 18 h and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by SPE ion exchange chromatography on an SCX-2 cartridge (1 g). The cartridge was washed with methanol (3 ml) and the product eluted with 2M ammonia in methanol (2.5 ml), to give the title compound (15 mg) LCMS RT=2.42 min, ES+ve m/z 493 (M+H)+.
