Acetyl chloride → HCID 2868979, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of 1-(2-fluoro-4-nitrophenyl)piperazine (15 g, 66.6 mmol) in DCM (160 ml) was cooled to 0° C. Triethylamine was then added (11.23 ml, 79.92 mmol) followed by dropwise addition of acetyl chloride (5.68 ml, 79.92 mmol). The solution was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stir for 1.5 hour. The reaction mixture was diluted with DCM, washed with water, sat. sodium hydrogen carbonate and brine. It was dried and the solvent was evaporated to give the title compound as a solid which was dried in vac oven overnight at 50° C. (17.46 g, 98%). NMR (400 MHz) 2.05 (s, 3H), 3.30 (dt, 4H, under H2O signal), 3.61 (m, 4H), 7.18 (t, 1H), 8.02 (d, 1H), 8.02 (dd, 1H); m/z 268.
