Trifluoroacetic acid → 6-Piperazino-3-(trifluoromethyl)[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine

Participants

Reaction Steps

Trifluoroacetic acid (25 mL, 324.49 mmol) was added to a mixture of tert-butyl 4-(3-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazin-6-yl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (6.7 g, 17.99 mmol) and dichloromethane (100 mL) at ambient temperature and the resulting solution was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was evaporated to give an involatile residue that was treated with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution (100 mL) and then extracted with dichloromethane (4×200 mL). The organic phases were combined and dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and evaporated to give 6-(piperazin-1-yl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-b]pyridazine (4.78 g, 98%) as a white solid that was used without further purification.
