Dimethylformamide → 5-[4-(3,4-Dichlorobenzoyl)-1-piperazinyl]-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-(1-Piperazinyl)-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril (2.6 g) and 4 ml of DBU were added to 40 ml of DMF. The mixture was stirred at room temperature while slowly adding dropwise 10 ml of DMF solution containing 3.0 g of 3,4-dichlorobenzoyl chloride. After completion of addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was poured into a large amount of water and extracted with chloroform. The extract was washed with sodium hydrogencarbonate solution and subsequently with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. Chloroform was distilled off and residual crystals were recrystallized from methanol to give 1.2 g of 5-[4-(3,4-dichlorobenzoyl)-1-piperazinyl]-3,4-dihydrocarbostyril, m.p. 250°-252° C., colorless powders.
