Participants

Reaction Steps

0.92 g (2 mmol) trans-4-{2-[4-(2,3-dichloro-4-methoxy-phenyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-ethyl}-cyclohexyl-amine dihydrochloride was suspended in dichloromethane (60 ml), triethylamine (1.26 ml, 9 mmol) was added followed by 0.21 ml (2.3 mmol) N,N-dimethylcarbamoylchloride. The reaction mixture was stirred for 48 hours at room temperature. The solution was washed with water (2×10 ml), dried and evaporated in vacuo. Purification with flash chromatography gave 0.66 g trans-1-{4-[2-[4-(2,3-dichloro-4-methoxy-phenyl)-piperazin-1-yl]-ethyl]-cyclohexyl}-3,3-dimethyl-urea, melting at 196-8° C. This product was dissolved in dichloromethane (60 ml), then 6.4 ml (6.4 mmol) borontribromid solution (1M in CH2Cl2) was dropped in at 5° C. and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. The reaction was monitored by TLC. 4 ml methanol was added, followed by 25 ml saturated NaHCO3 solution. After separation the organic layer was dried and evaporated in vacuo. Purification with flash chromatography gave 0.4 g of the title compound, melting at 278-80° C.
