Potassium Carbonate → 3-[2-[4-(6-Fluoro-1,2-benzisoxazol-3-yl)-1-piperidinyl]ethyl]-2-methyl-3H-quinazolin-4-one

Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred mixture of 3-(4-piperidinyl)-6-fluorobenzisoxazole (4 g, 18.2 mmol), K2CO3 (3.76 g, 27.2 mmol) and 3-(2-chloroethyl)-2-methyl-3H-4-quinazolinone (6.0 g 27 mmol) in acetonitrile (300 ml) was heated at reflux for 16 hours. The reaction was complete as judged by TLC. The solids were filtered and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was purified over a flash chromatography column (SiO2, 75 gm, eluted with dichloromethane and MeOH in dichloromethane). The pure product thus obtained weighed 6.5 gm. Recrystallization from ethanol yielded white crystals, 3.94 gm (53%), m.p. 164°-165° C. This material appeared pure by TLC over silica gel plates. ANALYSIS: Calculated for C23H23FN4O3 : 67.97%C 5.70%H 13.78%N Found: 67.66%C 5.66%H 13.60%N
