Reaction Steps

A solution of 1-[2-(4-bromophenyl)ethyl]-4-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethyl]piperazine (100 mg, 0.24 mmol), Zinc cyanide (84 mg, 0.72 mmol), and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium in DMF (1 mL) was heated to 85° C. for 1 hour. LC showed formation of the desired product, which was separated by mass-directed HPLC. LC-MS (IE, m/z): 365 (M+1)+. (0.079 μM)
